in the normal configuration, like Apeiron said, no they wont.

Are you looking into flipping them upside down? They might work for that, if that is what you are trying to do. But it wouldnt be the optimal setup.

No, not really. It's possible but not really practical.

Short headers (not blockhuggers) specifically for thirdgen cars will fit.
