I assumed that it would since we used a relocation piece when we did the last install which was SW.
Yes - I used a relocation bracket and all went smoothly. Also used Stage 8 bolts.
By the way -do yourself a favor and get a set of gaskets from Jerry's. OBX gaskets are 8 rectangular individual pieces - one per port. Got to be a real PITA to use.

Thanks for the tips. Pete will be doing the install, so I bet he already has a parts list for me to buy.

Cool! I am sure Pete is well prepared.
I am so impressed w/ OBX header quality I just might try out their stainless steel exhaust too.

Hey Kevin, why would you look for a used set...they sure arent going to be any cheaper than these. The way I see it, a company that makes a quality product at an affordable price is a win win for all. why not support them?

Secondchance, thanks for the tips and report.. These are definitely on the buy list as soon as I get the top end finished.

mostly because I need cats. I've got a line on headers/cats for $700ish and I'm just hoping the hold out till I have money to buy them.

if not, I'd consider these. but I can't pass inspection without cats...well I can but I'd rather not have to find the a guy to lick and stick my car.
