Technically, yes, they will bolt up. However, the 87-93 cars do not have the EGR port in the pass. side manifold, so you would
either have to cap the EGR valve pointing downwards, delete the EGR all together (have to turn off the EGR function with a tune),
or buy 94-95 5.0 specific headers with the EGR port in them. I have 87-93 5.0 BBK longtubes on my 95, but I deleted my EGR
and had the EGR function shut off when i had my car dyno-tuned.

hell just run the 93 shorties and cap the egr on the intake off.

i am running smog pump & egr delete and i just capped everything off and there's no problem. no check engine light or anything.

oh yeah, and i still pass Texas emissions even with off road exhaust.

shoot me a PM if you want to know how.

do not get the summit LT's. they are flowtech headers. You will never get them to stop leaking, they have the old 289 style oval flanges, they will rub your steering shaft something fierce too.

I have them.... They are now sitting in the corner of my garage, waiting to be scrapped!

I think getting shorties on 5.0 engines is pointless since they come stock with them :dontknow:

yeah, but they are really restricted. if you look at a pic of unequal shorties (bbk for example) next to the stock shorties, you can see there's a HUGE difference. the aftermarket ones flow way better.

well its not exactly pointless cause aftermarkets are shaped better with 1 5/8 primaries, probably lose a little back pressure on a stock motor but flow little better when the motor starts breathing more, but longtubes are always better in the long run
