Default Header Headache, What's your ZC dohc Header?

What header fits the 89 Zc dohc to go into an 89rex'?
Got a part number,brand,cost.....?

Still confused on the whole port alignment issue!
Do they make a header that is exact match, or fit as it may be???????????

just get a aftermarket crx header and port the inside...its fairly easy...take your 86-89 acura integra exhaust manifold gasket and put it up to the header, next trace where you need to grind off, and then do it...

Are there any that I don't have to mod.
Exact fit?

Okay, but I did mean in the states of course.. no offense to those who don't live here..

I'm still looking for a reasonable price on an exact or as close to exact fit header made in the US. That I don't need to grind the ports on. Something machince made not by hand grinding out the excess material in the header flange....

then you can buy 2 headers. use the top half of the 89 integra and the lower half of the 89 crx.
