Can you ID these heat exchangers

Anyone know the manufacturer of these heat exchangers? They are stainless steel. These are the only pics I have of them. Will they fit an 88 carrera? Any help would be appreciated.

Look like SSI's for 1980 and up 3.0 based on the flange going into the heads a little.
Won't work on my thin flange '78.

Yes, thick flange SSIs.

They will clean up much nicer than that, you can get them to a bright polish even after years under the car.

So they will work on my 88 3.2? Sorry if this is a dumb question. Also I have a scart exhaust that is 1 in 1 out in the factory position with factory flange. Do I need to get something that is 2 in?

Also, consensus seems to be that SSIs are undersized for a 3.2 -- this can be good to enhance midrange but will limit ultimate power. Finally, if heat's important to you, you'll need to reroute the heater tubes/components.

Thanks for the quick reply guys. Doesn't sound like I'm going the SSI route. Here is the link to the for sale ad on Craigslist. Seems like a good deal if in fact real SSI.
