Header and Exhaust Question
OK. My engine build nearing completion. I got the car rolling on all four wheels today for the first time in 13 months. Lets say I want to get the car started without buying certain things. I want to buy the new header but, will the stock exhaust system bolt up to the aftermarket header. I don't think I'll run the car with that setup for long. Just want to get it started. Let me know......

yes, aftermarket header will bolt right on (unless you bought a wrong aftermarket header for your car) but you should consider about header bottom ground clearane for the road...if you car too low it dent ur header's bottom pipes= no good

Re: Header and Exhaust Question (yeegsr)
The car really shouldn't end up sitting that low. I used Eibach Springs (1-1.25" drop), and KYB shocks. Do you have any suggestions so they don't get smashed?

Re: Header and Exhaust Question (Steak84SS)
The simple answer is - "It depends." There are many headers on the market that will require some form of modification to the rest of the exhaust system in order to be installed (and these, incidentally, are the better headers). If you are buying one of these headers, then you won't be able to simply bolt it on, even if it was built for your application. However, as others have mentioned, if you select a header that is intended to be a direct bolt-on (which again doesn't include the better ones out there), you won't have any problems installing it with the stock parts.
