Default Headers for V6...possibly found...

did a search and no results...
but i was thinking, since the jeep liberty came with a 3.7 v6 (same as dak right) would the headers for that fit on the dakota? and if not, why?

I thought it was 3.9 for the dak v6's.

Also I see gibson and JBA headers on summitracing.com for the 3.9.

3.7 is a better engine, more torque and almost the same hp. 5 i think nothing really noticeable...

the 3.9 is 175 hp and the 1.7 is 210, and yea its supposed to be alot better engine, but its still a 6, and idk why they wouldnt fit, id try it if i could afford it

well i called JBA and they arent sure...so i called a dealership and they have different part numbers
but the gaskets are the same...so i also found out the dealership has a 2003 3.7l v6 liberty sitting in the lot. so i am going down tonight to try and take the best pics i can lol see if i can tell if its a major difference or a small correctable one. then i'll gauge interest on a group buy from JBA so they get some...
well after i get off work i'll get some snaps of my engine and the jeeps
and post back up later
