The only reason I'm asking is because the 5.0 is essentially a bored out 4.3 with different heads. The basic block design is the same, I'm not sure if the bolts are in the same spots or if they'll clear other components.

I'm going to try and get the store to send me a cardboard cut out, dimensions of the openings and bolt position and than my mechanic and I will try to figure out if I we can get this to work. If they do work and provide gains on th but dyno they could be a great alternative to other companies that charge 1000+.

I have have a couple friends with 4 and 6 cyl. Asian rides with their headers. Never heard them complain on them. Didn't know they made them for Euro cars.

thats a gasket problem not a header problem sir. with most header applications you can run OEM gaskets, but you can NOT reuse them. same with valve covers/gaskets. common issues on a header could include bad welds, cracking, not durable, etc.

There is a hole on the headers after 3 months sir....should i buy it again ?
Think of this way you pay almost $300 for your front lip but the headers cost $299 ....what ?
Edit: I bought a set of DC sport after that and it was fine til i sold the car
