On the newer vehicles, and if you get them for the year vehicle there intended for they call them tubular exhaust.. The ones I got for my 2003 Ram 2500 with 5.7 hemi passes every year with OBD II. You just cant slam any old header on you have to get them by application. alot of them are equipt with the bung for the O2 sensor if not weld one in...Bill

To clear this up very quickly... this is an LA to Magnum engine swap. My 86 W250 doesn't get emissions tested. Actually it will grandfather out of safety inspection in a few years. (at least here in NC)

When I lived in California, CARB used to cause me fits. I could not make them understand that my 66 Plymouth Sport fury had no pollution devices because, unlike GM and Ford, Chrysler started that stuff in 67. I took my car to a mechanic for inspection and he started yelling Mod-ee-fied (insert Middle Eastern accent). But I didn't have to put up with the rust that I swear they build roads out of where I'm from. I just removed a half pound of dirt from the upper control arm bracket area of my 68 Barracuda I brought with me from California...no rust. Had that dirt and leaves been stuck up in that car on the east coast.......no car.
