Can someone who either owns an SN95 with a 351 swap or has done the swap please help me out with an exhaust question.
I'm helping a friend install a 351 into his 1994 GT hardtop to replace his (tired - 200k miles) stock 302. The 351 is a mild-build roller cam motor with ported iron GT40 heads. The car is going to be a summer daily driver and will be smog inspected.
I'm looking for shorty headers and a matched H or X pipe with cats that we can bolt right in. Can anyone recommend a brand or part numbers that you've used and had good results with? (He's trying to avoid exhaust fabrication work if possible.)
Long tubes might be another option, but I think that's more difficult with his requirement for having cats and a bolt-in installation.
Several years ago when I was considering a 351 swap for my car, BBK recommended their shorty Fox 351 swap headers, P/N 1511 / 15110, and told me that they will bolt right up to their SN95 mid-pipes, but I would like to hear from someone who can actually confirm that this mix-match of parts works.
He already has a Maximum Motorsports steering shaft installed, in case that makes a difference on the header fitment for the driver-side.
Thanks!
