they do but the pacesetters where 300 and the hookers are 500 but it looks like that may be the way i have to go. what do you think about mid tube headers?

u can switch your egr and air pump stuff with a 94-96 lt1 and use the lt headers. shorties are ok but dont give much power increase. as far as i know no one makes a lt header with the egr for the 93 that fits without modifications.

i sure hope so cause thats what im doing. lol. from what ive learned about the egr and its more than id like, it will work. thats in theroy. lol they fit but u will have to deal with the oil cooler, passeters may not have that problem, im currently going through it right now with kooks. ill post my solution in the build thread i have for my car when i figure it out. kooks no longer claims there egr headers will work on a 93. thanks to me.

did the 95 have two or four 02 sensors. thats one thing im not sure of. the 93 gets the exhaust gases to recirculate from the exhaust manifold on the #8 cylinder, it gets air for that side from the a i r pump though the same pipe at the back of the motor. the 94-97 has a separate tube to feed the exhaust gas to the egr and the air pump uses the pipes at the front to feed both sides. if u have the egr system from the 95 then the 94 97 headers is what u want. well either way that s what u want if u want to use the egr, air pump system.
