I just bought some Camaro 3.4 coated headers brand new on ebay for $200 ... which is super cheap. They may not fit the Fiero well but I'm already using a custom exhaust on one of mine so I'll figure it out ...

It looks like West Coast Fiero still makes headers for the V6.

I've heard too many stories of waiting X months for actual shipment. I ordered the Ebay ones on the 31st and they arrived from California today.

Your link doesn't work. Are you referring to These? I think they'd no doubt be awfully difficult to adapt to a stock V6 Fiero.

Just check the mall section daily..... On occasions a set of 'sprints' or Truilo's will appear ----- try the 'search' function in the mall as an unsold set may still be out there on a past page.

Along the lines of "with enough hacking they might fit" I've wondered if 3400 Grand Prix/Am headers would work:



Or 3.5 G6 ones:



Comments on OBX junk not required. Just talking about fit. Trunk/cradle area seem to be the biggest issue, but lots of folks have modified the trunk.

At least the FWD headers point the exhaust in the right direction (toward the trunk). And they shouldn't interfere with the CV axles. The RWD headers most likely will conflict with the CV axles, and/or the differential housing. Plus the RWD headers will protrude into the driver's side wheel well.

Well, I haven't lined them up yet but I was thinking of running long independent collectors and just merge them up just before the muffler rather than having a "cross-over" the transmission...
Also, the welds where the primaries meet the head flange need to be cleaned up prior to installation...

I believe the exhaust ports line up the same across generations...

That's what I understand. 2.8/3.1/3.4/3.5 only differ in the bolt spacing. One of these setups seem like they'd work, but tough to tell by just looking.
