Gt40P headers???

FRPP "P" headers were the best fitting headers I have ever used. I'd get those.

some long tubes work too, but mac p an fms are your choices in shorty.

I believe you can use any header you want....

"The header issues can be fixed with a shorter spark plug/ 45* angle boots/ or a small ding to clear.

Either heads are great!! Ported they are even better!!

Just me...........................

M-9430-P50 in a stainless header. M-9430-C50 and M-9430-P51 in Jet Hot.

Ford Racing Parts and Accessories at great prices has the stainless for $239 and the Jet Hot for $329.

I have read in many diferent threads on a few different forums that the BBK unequal length shorties also work very well.

Last time i checked (and it's been a while) some of the shorty plugs costed 2-3 times as much.
Multiply that by 8, and consider you may change the plugs and in no time at all you land up not saving any money.
And if by chance the header burns your wire anyway, again now you need more plug wires.

IMO, just economize by buying the right headers.
