Default looking for NEW header info

I have done the searches, and have read how the chikara header SUCKS, how well the DCS BLOWS, etc....

I am looking for related information due to fitting.

I have a 1990 Civic Si, am DOING a B18 swap, and want a header. Did anyone ever get around to making one that flows well, and STILL fits in this car for that swap?
I have been out of the loop on headers for a long time, and would like to know. This motha is just about ready to go in.

Header is my next buy, so advice for this swap is needed/appreciated.

Thanks.
Scott

TTT,

Peeps, I could really use some decent info. I guess by no responses this means that no one has made a header that fits this swap very well??

I am looking for fitting information, not performance information.
Nice job crosslinking though.

I already know that if someone made a header to fit a 90 Civic Si Hatch with B18A swap in it, I am sacrificing performance.
I want to know if anything has been developed that fits.

OK I guess it is safe to assume that if I want a header in my Swapped ED hatch, then I will have to modify the front crossmember.

I asked for NEW info on fitting headers, but all I got was some dyno testimonies... Last and final bait cast for information.

any b series header is gonna fit...the only problem is that noone really makes a "swap" header thats gonna be perfect...most likely your gonna need some slight alterations on the exhaust...

If you're gonna bitch and moan, ditch the old school EF for a newer model; or buy a car with the motor you want already. My header fits pretty damn good for being custom. Some minor modification to the hangers/supports had to be played with.
