Default RE: headers!?

all of the links say they will work on up to a 95 dak, I have a 96, I thought they were the same from 95-96, so would those headers still work on mine? also, will they work with the rest of the factory exhaust?

Yes they will work for you. The link fox had says 92-96. They all look like they will connect to factory pipes. You can also try summitracing.com

nothin wrong about them, I recommend checkin and make sure if your dak requires the donuts or not I put mine in when itdidn't require them pain in the butt to take all apart again.

Ya I did way better throttle response, louder exhaust tone, and my seconed gear is the best, has a lot power behind it now. yeah I wanted to get some gibsons but didn't want to fork out $400 so went with flowtechs, pacesetters are just as good never heard a bad thing about them and the summit ones are probley the same as the pacesetter but just under summit's brand name. One bit of advice if you want to keep the paint on your headers (if it comes with it) get some header paint from kragen or autozone cause the stuff I got from the factory just peeled off after breakin the engine in

Are you saying that one should strip the old paint off first? Or just paint on top of the factory paint?
