searched to no avail.

i'm looking for a set of shorties that will fit the stock heads, gt40 heads, and the gt40p heads.

i guess i should ask: will gt40p shorty headers fit the gt40 AND e7 heads?


the plan is to get an explorer engine w/in the next few weeks, but i wanna order stuff like the headers and h-pipe right now and use them on my stock engine until work on the new engine is complete (overhaul, port/polish, etc). i can't tell if i'm gonna end up w/ a P or not, hence why i'm asking of if P headers will fit non-P heads.

thanks, gents.

In all seriousness, don't get shorties. Do it once and do it right and just get a set of longtubes. The power gain of shorties is squat compared to longtubes.

If I knew now what I knew when I bought headers, there's no way I would have bought shorties.

Hey Paul, seems like greenmustanggt made regular e7 shorties work on gt40p headers i believe....not positive if it was him but someone on here did. I think it took a couple 90* plug ends to make it into the tight spaces. Im pretty sure there was no intense work that had to be done. Also, i think you might have to cut down a spark plug socket to change those close plugs...although im not sure.

With those explorer motors, i highly doubt u'll have to "settle" for a motor. There a dime a dozen so i think u would have no problems getting a gt-40p motor...so u can go ahead and get those headers.

Hey Paul I have the specfic Mac headers that fit on GT40P heads/GT40's/E7. I'm getting a new motor in this weekend w/longtubes so my Macs are going to be up for sale.

Paul, he just got them about 2 months ago or something. That was when he got the 306 in there with gtp heads. So they should be in good condition.

Mike, are you still selling your whole engine for the price we talked about?

Tru, I bought the headers 2-3 months ago, to go along with my GT40P heads. Nacho my motor will be up for sale it ran a 13.72 last Friday on street tires the block still needs better performance parts such as..TB, Maf, Inj, Longtubes.
