will this header fit a rocco?

[jdbubb at verizon.net (Dan Bubb)]

On A2 and A3 chassis the steering rack is mounted to the subframe, not the firewall, so that makes space above the rack and in these cars the exhaust runs over the rack and between it and the firewall. Hence the nice gentle bends in this header. On an A1 chassis the header runs in front of and under the rack, so typically has a pretty sharp 90 degree bend.
You can see the differences here:
