Thorley 22re headers
Do these fit 5 speed models or only automatics I have heard they do/don't from different sources and would like to know before I spend the money.

Ya down in the notes it says does not fit 5 speed models with hydraulic clutch I have the chance to get those same ceramic coated doug thorleys for cheap. I'm guessing thats why I states may require a S pipe?

Yah the guy wants $300 for the entire exhaust setup or $100 for just the header and I just sold my custom wheels and 31s so I could put new tires on my stock steel wheels for the mileage soI figured since I am running a New head with oversized valves and a 268 cam I may aswell do what I can to milk it for mileage before it hits $5 a gallon.

Will do, I was getting 16mpg before and that was driving threw hills with 31s on stock geared axles which sucked being as I was stuck lugging it in 4th and hoping to make it to the top or reving it up over 4k in 3rd and pushing it up the hills, Its way more driveable with the smaller tires so a header would make it even better.

Does anyone know I am required to have the CARB sticker on the firewall or if the smog shop can simpley look it up with the Dmv? If I am would they send me a new one being as its probably not gonna swap over lol.
