Hey guys, back again with another question (problem?)

i've got an 84 22r. i'm trying to work out what i'm going to do to fit a smog legal header, the current issue is sorting out the air injection tube

My early model 22r uses a different tube than the later models, which poses a problem

Now, LCE makes an adapter kit that would allow me to use my early model air tube with a header, But it cost $100 

I think i could find a later model air tube but my tube does not have the little 2 bolt flange on the end like the one pictured

My tube just wraps arund the back of the head, presumably all the way to the intake.


So if i wanted to go that route, could i just get a newer style 2 piece tube and replace the whole tube all the way to the intake? is that a pain to do with the engine in the truck? would a later model injection tube from an 85-88 fit on my 84?

lets hope these photos worked, first time doing this.

Pacesetter sells a header that fits the early style air injection tube, and it's quite cheap. but it looks like a piece of junk.

FYI, you're talking about the air injection tube. not the EGR. that is on the carb side of the head. the tube goes to the air pump, after some valves.
