Does anyone know if the RD headers will clear a 4hp22 auto tranny? If so, I'll join the GB. Thanks

We may have a new idea to get the group buy completed, but won't give any details until if/when it comes to fruition.
could use some updates though.. please John :-)

As you can see from the picture, because the original headers had a doughnut style coupler that allows for some angular mis-alignment the flanges are held together tightly by the spring force.
So they're most likely E34, and I'll need to modify the oil filter mounting to use them. also not willing to do a Nando and just flip the oil filter mounting flange - I'm keeping AC.
Then again maybe the E30 versions required the oil filter to be moved too.Last edited by bradnic; 12-09-2018, 04:01 PM.I BUY/SELL REFURBISHED CM5907s & CM5908s

Posting to help others avoid confusion about E30 vs E34 header designs
this post earlier points to a strictlyeta.net page that explains the difference between the E30 and E34 RD snake header designs.
RD E34 M20 headers (collectors aimed back, interfere with E30 firewall, require modification)
RD E30 M20 headers (collectors aimed down - the group buy design)
