Can't speak to the fitment. However, if you're planning to order them with ceramic coating from Dougs, think again. UPS just picked mine up today to be returned. I'm getting a set from Thermal Tech. For examples, take a look at the photos below. These are brand new, just opened. The vendor I purchased them from was in complete agreement that these are not acceptable and that they'll get a lot worse very fast. Thermal Tech buys raw Dougs headers and coats them on their own. It is said to be a far superior coating.

The Dougs header quality itself is fine. It's just their coating. I'd check around and see if somebody like Thermal Tech works. http://www.thermaltechcoatings.com/ is the site, and they do sell Dougs. They just charge more. You can buy raw from Dougs and have them coated yourself separately, but in my searches it has always been at least as much as what Thermal Tech charges directly.
