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.

They probably have a 5spd header and an automatic header. Some do. Just go with an LC engineering header no they are both good I'm just an LC Fan

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.

thats a pretty good deal, but check the flange before you buy it to make sure its not warped

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.
