There are several parts to the 80 air cooled system, see what you have before you start buying. #1) Heat Exchangers $199.00 each #2) Crossover Pipe $229.00 or more #3) Catylitic Converter $120 - 159 #4) Muffler about $75.00 #5) Tailpipe about b$ 14.00 #6) Square Canister $179.00 #7) Connector Pipe cannister to EGR Valve NLA #8) EGR Valve (mounts on air distriubutor) NLA #9) EGR agjustment rod NLA I opted for the S&S equal length header system from Bus Boys at $119.00 and just use my stock heat exchangers. If you feel comitted to going back to OEM setup I can supply complete used system. If you don't need all that stuff to pass inspectioin just go for the S&S system.
