G8 Xforce headers?

Post by leadfoot »

Does anyone know if their G8 headers clear the factory oil cooler :?:

Only knowledge we have about G8 headers in general is they will not clear the cooler. SS are a direct bolt-in.

As stated, I don't believe it will clear the oil cooler. If you delete the cooler, I can't see why they wouldn't fit.

G8 headers that will clear the oil cooler I believe would only be Kooks midlengths or similarly setup headers.

IF you want to spend the $ I am sure you can get some fitment specific x-force headers from JHP or the like. I emailed back and forth looking for a Statesman exhaust with them, ended up going different route. They have the rest of the x-force line though I'm sure you could pick up.
