Default Will these Headers fit my 2001 ZO6?

I am looking at buying some used TPIS long tube headers that came off of a 99' Corvette... Will they fit my 2001 Z06? I need to know asap!
Thanks,
Matt

I think you would just have to modify the o2 sensor bung

I take it that would be pretty easy to do? (I am very new to the corvette world)

I'm not positive, but I think that the AIR tube hookup is also different. For Supermaxx headers the part nr for a 99 C5 is different than a 01.

Should be just the AIR tubing. You can buy the 99 stuff to retrofit from GM, or find them used.

Only difference is the right side AIR tube. You will need to get a '99 - most dealers have them.

You may also have to change the dipstick. Some guys get by by bending the old tube in the right spots to fit. The mounting location is different as well as the bolt that holds it down. I did not have to move the O2 bung, but did have to modify the air tube system. Scott
