Dino, Walker's number is 85114 for their 1.625" primary set. Hooker also makes two sets (1.625 and 1.75") but I am sorry that I do not have the Hooker catalog close to look up the numbers for you. Flowtech also makes some I beleive but not sure if they are 3 or four tube. I know the Hooker ones fit well but you may have one interference issue with the tube on the driver's side that runs close to the lower control arm mount. We have seen that Walker's are inconsistent; out of the five sets we have messed with, one was close, one hit and the others were all fine. I think others have used Hedman with great success so maybe we will hear from those with more experience on them. Tom Hand

Dino,
I used the FlowTech Headers. They are a 4 tube design. They fit great, but I had to make a couple of mods:
1) I made a SLIGHT dimple in the tube next to the starter solenoid. I wanted a little more clearance just in case something should loosen up and move.
2) I filed the 2nd bolt hole on both sides (back side of #1 and #2 cylinders) for more access.
3) I cut the connecting bridge where the dipstick goes through to aid in positioning them. I found that after I had done this, I could have just filed it a little (oops! :O)

Oh yeah, Make sure you have an extra oil filter adapter gasket and a 7/16" wrench that you can modify (or spend $25.00 at Snap On for the correct(??) wrench).
Good luck,
