What header to go with 99+ intake swap
Since I'm about to embark on the adventurous head gasket change, I figured I would do the intake swap and replace the cracked header. I want to know what header people running with the swap and what mods they did for fitment. This is going to be on a 98. Thanks

I got this:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/RACING-MANIFOLD-HEADER-EXHAUST-91-99-JEEP-WRANGLER-CHEROKEE-4-0-6CYL-YK-TJ-XJ-ZJ-/180902510604?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&fits=Make%3AJeep&hash=item2a1ea1400c&vxp=mtr#ht_3816wt_1088
On just about all of them you will have to "clearance" the header tube for the intake to fit properly.It's the one nearest the firewall.
I did this on the 4-2.Not hard, but it took me almost 8 hours to complete.In my defense,I was watching my kids for spring break.I also had a issue with my 703's not being nice.
