OK I have a 04 silverado 1500 crew cab with a 5.3ltr in it. I live in Texas. How do I know if I have A.I.R. or EGR to order headers from edlebrock. I don't think I have A.I.R. but they are 3 different part numbers and was wondering if anyone had an idea? When I called edlebrock they didn't know either.

Let's face it, the red hair... makes 'em wet.
Really I hope that's right so I can order the right headers.
GM stopped putting EGR on trucks in '02. Unless you got your truck in Cali or ordered it with their emissions you don't have AIR injection either.Originally posted by Chevy-Crew-SS@Oct 11 2004, 10:50 PM

Yes, he is correct, no Air and no EGR. Unless you bought your truck in Cali.
I'd say between the 2, Edelbrock. Another member bought a set of the SLP and had mounting clearance problems with the steering shaft bolt and had to have in machined down before he could finalize the install. I almost bought the SLP's when before I heard about this. Now I am re-thinking which ones I want to get.

Did the Stainless/Nickel Plated headers on my truck 5.3 worked great no real issues to deal with make truck sound better, I went a purchased a stock doughnut seal and used it, also got stock metal manafold gaskets to use thought they were a bit better then the ones from e-brock. I also purchased Stage8 locking bolts would highley recomend them they work awsome.

I simply used lockwashers on my bolts to resist backing out... put about 3k on them since them (mostly city milage) and not one has backed out. Good cheap alternative.
