    I bought a set of headers for my truck thinking about the same thing ,They will fit or I'll make them fit. Well the passenger side went right in. The driverside however was another story. Sterering gear box trans linkage and I think somthing else was wrong. Ontop of that I had angle plug heads so I couldnt get to the front plug on the passenger side. I made a call and bought the right ones, seems Hooker is the only company that makes my combination.

    I've got straight plug heads so I don't think that will be an issue, thanks for the idea on the part number, I hadn't thought of that and it should help me pin it down before I get crazy. Lets just hope the p/n is stamped on the headers . As far as exhaust goes I've got some reducers down to 2" and a pair of smithy glasspacks from summit, I'm planning on clamping them straight on and then when I get a chance probably after the holidays I will take it down to the muffler shop and have them run it out to the back with an x-pipe. I figure it'll be good and loud but still bearable to drive. Thanks guys!
