One bank should be tilted a little forward, and the other almost straight up when viewed from the side.

lay head flange flat on table,,, the rear header's flange will lay flat,,, THATS THE REAR ONE<<<< the front flange won't lay flat because the bends will make the bottom downpipe flange hit the table and the head flange will stick up... THATS THE FRONT ONE

BBsAcuraRacing,

As state above, the front and rear headers are similar but not identical.

In case you got 2 of the same, let me know, we will ship you the replacement. I am sorry, the packagers at the warehouse did not know that there is difference between front and rear and some shippment get mixed up.

Nashua.

Please do so. Ship it back to the return address on the box of the replacement headers. If you want till installation is done. That is fine too, as long as the installation is soon.
