Will 3.0 Downey Headers fit both 1st + 2nd gen
does anyone know if downey made only one model of header for the 3vze for a truck or 4runner. or are they different depending on the year of the vehicle?
im asking because i found a pair for sale but the person selling them said it was only for a 1st gen truck or 4runner with the 3.0. i have a 2nd gen 4runner. and of course Downeys website is now gone so i coudlnt check.

I have the Downey headers on my 1st gen. I did notice a difference when I put them on, but it is not neck snapping. Throttle response was better, it climbed hills a bit stronger. They do not turn the 3.0 into a 5.0, but, they help it out a bit. The first time I drove it I remember smiling and thinking, well, that was worth it.
Then I modified the gearing and put bigger tires on. Now I can't even remember how it all compares to stock.
