No, that's why you keep your headers, so everything fits. It's just a few holes drilled into the header flange.

Dreamer Use your head...

this engine Swap is a bad idea.. at least plan on new headers & rigging parts all add up fast..$$$

but then again keep the Sterlings.. plan on making Dean your new best friend $$$..

when you account these factors my offer is fair whether Blume wants to believe it of not.. Just my 02ct...
