I do not know what the fit would be like. If you are modifying the subframe then you can make it fit the headers. My concern would be the front motor plate. You would probably need to allow the exhaust to go through the motor plate. A second gen frame has front steering and I had no clearance issues. I was going to change to a rack and had no concerns with the headers or exhaust interfering with the rack.
