Need help with headers and y pipe

Hi,
I've been trying to find headers that have the AIR tubes and O2 sensor plug and matching y pipe but don't see em' anywhere.

Only reason I'm looking for headers is because my stock ones hit the oil dipstick (drivers side) and they don't make headers that match our stock y pipe, right? I don't really care about performance right now, just want all of my emissions equipment in working order as well as keeping my air conditioning (I hear that some headers give the a/c a hard time fitting).

Anyone know where I can get these?

Hooker 2055's should do the trick.

There's also the Edelbrock TES headers - but unsure of Y-pipes - but alot of folks in emissions required counties/states run them, so must be something available for Y-pipes.

Yeah there's a guy here selling them both https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/engi...headers-y.html , pm'd him yesterday and hasn't responded . I also found a guy that wants fifty bucks for just the headers but I'll have to get my own y pipe. I wish that guy would respond to me man..

Re: Need help with headers and y pipe

Edelbrock TES fit the bill. Best fit of any shorty header out there. They come with a y-pipe that fits well and include provisions for all of your emissions equipment. Spark plug access is good too.
