Default Differences between 97-00 and 01+ Headers

Hi All,

I have a chance to buy some longtube coated headers for a C5 they have 1 3/4 primaries.

The only problem is this is from a tuner that had them in storage for awhile and has no idea what kind they are... I figure they are most likely TPIS since they have been in storage for awhile. But they also don't know what year they are for.

So if they were for say a 97-00 will they still work on my 01 Z06? I know the differences in F-bodies is more emissions crap which can be blocked off or welded up. But is there a more drastic difference in the C5's?

The price I can get them for is VERY low I figure I can have a local exaust shop make me an offroad pipe and be good to go

Thanks!

Bobby

So would it be a big deal to get a setup of older headers into an 01?

Use the EGR block off plates and buy the other style dipstick tube and dipstcik, and no issue.
