BBC headers

After reading through the bbc forums I didnt see if the headers 68610 or the patriot h8012 would actually fit the third gen. Thank you for your time.

Re: BBC headers

If they're not specifically for 82-92 third gens, they probably won't fit without some kind of modifications.

There's only a handful of BBC swap headers available and none are cheap.

Did you happen to see the post from booboosean. He used the Patriot H8012. He did this a while ago but he actually still has pictures posted in the BBC Swap. His turned out looking pretty good. I am not sure if he stuck with those headers or switched to something else.
