Ive been looking at the 97 ford probe header set for $200 with y pipe, my question is the vulcan v6 was used in the probe and does it have the same bolt pattern as the duratec? And does anyone have experience using a mazda header setup? I have seen some posts from the contour group about the mazda headers but didnt get a clear answer if it worked or not with or with out modifications. I'm really thinking if the headers match up I could modify the y-pipe to clear the alternator bracket or what ever is in the way. The routing of the cougar exhaust manifolds is less than ideal to run a true dual set-up, but I've been contemplating buying a mandrel bend set from amazon and welding up my own and using the existing flange's off the stock header/precat. I'm just not willing to spend the amount money msds is asking or any other company making these headers. anything over $300 is just ridiculous for a set of headers on this platform. Theres less than $50 bucks worth of material and to think paying someone over $500 to weld it is even more insane. IDK maybe im just to practical to entertain the thought of aftermarket headers.
