I installed Ford shorty headers and now the piping that bolts to the front of the header on the driver side is in the wrong location. It is the EGR piping I think (the small metal piping).

Actually after searching I found a post on svtperformance and the ones he has and I have are for the 96-97 Cobra's. I may just cut it and have it rewelded after I fit it to my car.

why dont you just buy the 96-97 egr tube.the egr itself sits in the same spot on the manifold.or if you do just decide to modify it it will definitely be easier with the motor outside the car

I was trying to find a picture of the egr tube that connects to the driver side header but I can't find one. Do you KNOW for a fact that it will fit on my existing egr tube, because it does come apart in the middle?

i believe all the headers for 4v mod motor are the same its just different place location of the egr tube itself. I might have to look but i might have a 96-98 egr tube from head to header around here somewhere. i'll look foran let u know JOHN
