    I like the "if he responds"; anyone who is familiar with IE knows what you are talking about. What questions about fitment concerns you?

      I asked if he had heard of anyone using them on a 335 and the distance the farthest tube is away from the block.



      Judging by this pic, it looks like they would hit the frame rails in an e30

        Here is what he responded:

        "Sorry I do not think the headers will fit the e30 chassis. Our neighbor made one work but he had to do some cutting and welding.

        Jeff Ireland"

        Nothing about distance.

          i'll bet the cutting and welding was after the collectors, not that hard to do.

          just drive out here from RI and i'll help you make them fit. there is no snow and it is in the low 70's high 60's during the day

            Ha, I would love to. Buy me the headers and I'll be there by Friday :p.

            No snow would be awesome right now- I hate waking up to this

                Is it a b34? Why must you use the manifolds that came with it?

                  Its a EURO motor, aka the 10.1 motor so the headers are different.

                    By 10.1 do you mean compression ratio? That would be an m90, which I am 75% sure has the same exterior dimensions as a US spec b34. All m30 headers should fit, unless for some reason you want to keep the ones that it came with.

                        I was looking for a E34 M30 header on Ebay and there is nothing available. Anyone know where else to look? I went to the OBX site and they don't have them listed.

                        I just need a cheap china header for my brother's car.
