    Default Paccie Headers

    just wondering if pacemaker headers from a VR Calais 5litre
    will fit a vs stato series 3 5litre

    being a stato (calais based) id assume itll all bolt up fine?
    and the variable rack wont get in the way?

    cheers

    The right hand side header will not fit. It will hit the valve body of the rack. Variable ratio steering has a different set of extractors. Unless of course the VR had variable ratio, but I don't think they did.

    Most if not all cars have a variable ratio rack, I think what your referring to is the variable effort rack.

    If it has variable effort steering, then yes.

    Ok, this should stop the confusion, if thVariatronic racks have an electric plug that plugs into them, if your rack has one and the car that they originally came off had one too, then they will go on.
