I'm sure that everyone knows that RCI makes custom headers for 1965 - 1973 Mustangs, with the 289, 302 or 351W engine.

But did you know that for folks that want to swap in the 429/460 Big Block engine, we have that covered too (for 1967 - 1973).

The big open area between the first and second primary tubes are designed to go around the motor mounts on the 429/460 engines. 1 7/8" or 2" primaries, your choice...

Although this photo is of a Mid Length 429/460 Header for a FOX chassis car (the engine is sitting on the floor on it's nose, I tilted it 90-degrees), you can see how these Big Block headers have to snake around the engine mounts and the starter and some other chassis/suspension components. It gets kind of tight in there, but it fits (this is a 2" primary, 3 1/2" collector). If the customer is using a front motor plate instead of standard motor mounts, the number one primary tubes sweep back like most Small Block headers...
