Need Info: 2nd Gen vert header

Hello to everyone out there.

I am new to the club but a long time owner/fan of RX7's.

I recently purchassed a s4 vert (my first true convertible) and it has a header on it. Up untill this point, I had no idea that a header was made for this app. I have had friends in the past install coupe headers on verts with some "massaging" and dificulty. Who makes them and where can they be purchassed from? One of my best friends (who has owned more RX's than I can remember) has an imaculate 91 vert with 53k miles on it. He wants to install one on his car, but I can't find any tags or markings on mine to help him out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Lov-2-Rev

It is my understanding that the Mindtrain header fits verts.

Iv'e installed the RB and Pacesetter headers. The RB fit coupe and vert models. The pacesetter only fit on the coupe, although their website site at the time, showed all models of RX-7.

That was the problem I found with the pacesetter. Fit fine on my old coupe, but not on another friends vert. I believe it had interference with the cross member or sub frame bracing or something. Just trying to set my buddy in the right direction. I know RB is the way to go. Anyone install a mindtrain unit though??
