Jeep Exhaust Header
So I had this header giving to me. The person I got it from didn't know what model jeep it went to just that it was for a 4.0 I was wondering if it would fit my 95 xj. I know I will have to run a Y pipe or Dual exhaust as the stock manifold an every other header iv seen is a 6/2/1 setup

Thats what i thought as well but if you look at the middle mounting points its 3 bolts to mount it. All of the 4.2 headers i have seen have a square bracket in the middle with 2 bolts for mounting

top is drake brand headers for the 4.0 and bottom is headmen brand headers for the 4.2 if you look at the middle mount the ones i was given have a mount like the 4.0 but the rest looks like the 4.2 header. also the 4.2 has square ports while the 4.0 has round

The mount holes at #1 and #6 don't seem to line up between yours and the 4.0 example you show. Yours are above the port centerline, the drakes are below centerline.

didn't even realize that even the 4.2 is below the centerline of the port. I wonder if its even a jeep header. thanks everyone pointing out some big red flags. it would of sucked to pull my jeep apart just to find out it wont fit
