Header Headaches!

There is a bracket to move the ram slightly. That might clear it up for you. My problem is clearance at the collector. One set hit the floor hard enough that I could not even get it on.

Did you get that link to Ford Powertrain Appications I sent you? That might be an option if you want longtube headers and P/S.......and a 351W. If not, shorties will definitely get you the clearance since the exhaust can be built around your power steering. Like was mentioned in the other thread; whoever says shorties wont gain you anything is a crackhead. Even '87+ 5.0 Mustangs see a gain and they came with factory tubular headers! They arent that far behind longtubes. Also, dont bother with equal-length shorties; the access and installation problems they make are not worth the tiny improvement over unequal-length.

i have a 68 with a 351 heddman makes a decent header with 1 5/8th primaries and 3 inch collectors but for the power steering almost no matter what your gonna have to get5 a drop bracket for the ram. check summit for the parts.

I bought the Ford Powertrain headers for my 351 with powersteering and a drop bracket. Go with shorty headers so that you dont have issues later down the road when you want to intall a power steering rack.
