Does anyone know if factory AUII XR8 extractors will fit an EBII XR8 without fouling anything ?

Nope! AU2's are running GT40p heads which have the spark plug located in a different spot to the E7's. They run a different arrangement of extractor.

I'm not sure of that. I have HM headers on my EL series 1 and they are the same ones that they use for the AU's....

Yeah but the EL's use the GT-40P's as well. I am not sure when they started using them, but I think all the 185KW and better engines have them. Would that mean EF series II maybe?? Anyone...??

As i said, mine is a series one and doesn't have GT-40p's...

Nope! EL2's didn't get GT40p's. The way to tell is to look at the drivers side head, right at the front about 1/2 way down it. There is a little flat panel, and "GTP" is pressed into it.
