Status: offline 		The only way to find out is to order the pipe you want and see if it will be a direct fit, can be made to fit, or just won't fit at all. By asking such a general question the chance of you getting an acceptabe response is slim to none. If you have a particular pipe in mind with a pic of same I could tell you if it would work or not, but to simply ask if all 12 headers fit all 12 engines is kind of a silly way to get a car specific answer.

To answer your question, yes, any side exhaust header for a .12 (and .15 for that matter) will fit on any .12 or .15 side exhaust engine. The real question you need answered is will a particular header fit your car. In off road applications as long as it looks to be about the same shape it's a safe bet it will fit. This is not so in on road. Most on road headers look the same, but the chance a header from one brand fitting another brand is slim at best. Even the aftermarket companies that produce on exhaust systems usually make brand specific headers.

Good luck waiting for the next few days for someone to come to your rescue rather than either being safe and simply ordering a replacement or doing the reasearch yourself.

Status: offline 		I dont think a upgrade header will matter, thats not a high performance engine anyways (you wouldnt notice a big improvement)
