Re: headers ???

The 3.1 is a stroked 2.8, not bored. Also yes they will bolt up, but you wont be able to use your AIR pump.

Re: headers ???

Hey before you put the headers in. Put a header coating on to make them look nice. You can buy this stuff at almost any parts store. If you dont the headers have paint that burn off in a day causing the headers to rust out within days. I wish I would have done this.
