They'll bolt right up.  The headers will line up fine, those are 4 into 2
into 1, the 2 into 1 part isn't until quite far down the line.

Aside from finding the right plumbing to bolt on down stream of the downpipe
portion of this assembly, you're going to need to make provisions for your
O2 sensor.

This is a large assembly, I'm not sure if you can install this with the
engine in place..
