Default 2000 Parts on a 98

L's & G's,

I'm trying to find out if a 2000 C5's stock parts are compatible with a 98's stock parts??? Parts consist of exhaust manifolds, exhaust system etc.

Thanks in advance for the great advice!!!

Yes they are! many of the parts are completely interchangeable - just a few that are not and hat even goes for 1997-2004 -

Best bet is to ask which parts you want to swap over before you do - but as for the exhaust you are all clear

Thanks,Matt

I agree that all the exhaust fit all the years BUT,,, some exhaust manifolds only fit the mid-pipes that they came with. What that means is; you have to use the manifold and mid-pipe for that year.

Also,, 2001+ moved the dip stick mount from the manifold to the block. If thats the case, you will need a new dip stick and tube.
