I'm looking to purchase some headers for my EB. I have a 351W with manual tranny, so space is limited. Post up if you have a recommendation on headers that work well for this setup. Thanks in advance :xyxthumbs:

I run Hedman's on my 351W. They could use a bit of tweaking to get the collect on the pass side off the frame rail and the tubes get a bit close to the inner fenders. If it is in your budget get the Jet-Hot coating. I got the Elite coating and it did not last a year.

Thanks for the advice. I called Jet-Hot this morning. They have Hedman's that are 1.5 to a 2.5 collector for $352. The Hedman part number is 89410. Does this match your setup?

If your real worried about space look into hooker headers. They are a fenderwell exiting header. I'm currently runing them on my 289. But will keep them when I swap in my 351 that's currently sitting in the shop. Also there was a guy on classic that was selling some real nice dyno tuned fenderwell header for a realy nice price. If I remeber right you could them coated and with duel flowmaster for like 400 something. I can find it if your intrested.
As for coatings check out calico coatings. They are local and have some awsome finishes for headers. They did a bunch of headers in this flat black finish for us at the race shop. And it holds up great no peel at all.

Dang I just got a quote on a set of standard hedmans with sterling finish, and they said it would be 379.83, what finish are you looking at getting 73bronc .The elite's were 501.88 I can't swing that, but they do look nicer with the ball and socket, Also would the hedders interfere with a deep trans pan? sorry for the highjack

Just wandering if you recieved your hedders yet? I ordered mine about 3 weeks ago and havn't seen them yet, they still haven't charged me for them either, I called the guy and he said all is well so I guess I'll wait a little longer and see,(Starting to get impatient)
