ok small update, i ended up getting both front and rear headers from a 5 speed solara. because im trying to smog this car, i need to comply with how the solara is. luckily it only has 1 CAT after the Y pipe so im getting all those parts now. the AC lines have been fabbed up. The Solara and the Celica use the same AC compressor but you have to either change the top section where the lines attach to it, or change the pulley. I elected to swap the top sections. i just welded -8 AN fittings on the spots where the hoses attach and made my own lines.

I got so excited for a minute when I read "I turned the key." I was expecting to hear it started on the first try. I'm sure you'll get it sorted out in no time.

Gotta figure why the key in the on position is triggering the starter.
