the car is in my sig, my ? is, I have a set of Mac longtube headers & a Prochamber to match from my 91 notch, will they fit on the 351w setup that I have? has any of you tried this or something similar. I loved the sound of the LT's & the prochamber on my 5.0 & I think that they would sound awesome on my 393 stroker. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks, Joey

You need long tubes made for the 351W conversion.
If the long tubes you have are for a 302W then your answer is no.

thanks for the input, could you explain why they won't fit? is the 351 wider?

Not just wider but taller too. The exhaust ports are higher on the 351W due to the taller deck height. The collectors will most likely touch the floorpan and bellhousing if you try using the 302W long tube headers.

thanks for the explanation, I forgot that it was taller so that makes sense
