I have a '95 Cobra, and I'm wanting to upgrade to long tube headers in the very near future. I have used Hooker supercomps in the past (on my '86 5.0) and loved them, but they don't make headers for the '94-'95 Mustangs. They list some '86-'93 headers ("emission compatible" non-long tubes) as being able to fit a '95 Mustang, but no mention of the '86-'93 long tubes. I've heard of some people using '86-'93 MAC and BBK headers, but not Hooker. Any ideas? Specifically, I'm wanting to use the #6227 headers with the 1 3/4" primaries.

Those headers are far too big for your car. No need for 1 3/4 primaries on a stock 5.0. For what you have on your car, your equal legnth shorties are fine. Spend that money on the suspension

Maybe so, but that doesn't answer whether they'll work (or if he has engine mods planned in the future, which will take advantage of a 1 3/4" primary tube).


They'll bolt on, but you'll have interference issues with the shift fork, if you're running a T5. Check out this thread in 94-95 Tech for some good info.
