MRWEST Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Helping Mrs old man sort out his Factory 351W 1969 Fairlane 500 (ZC). Wanting to do an exhaust with headers ideally. Apparently the motor has had different heads on once upon a time and it has angled forward/back (depending on the side) spark plugs. Apparently this can be an issue? There are a few options iv found but not confident they will work. Performance Parts in Auckland have the following -Hurricane Headers HH-111TFM which are for XR-XF Falcon, i spoke direct to Hurricane in Auzy and he thinks they would clear steering etc BUT wont if it has angled plugs -Hedman Headers - HED-88300 - For Ford 64-74 351W. These are LHD headers though so not sure if steering will be an issue or not, and if it is how much? Has anyone fitted these? Silvesters in CHCH have Flowtech Headers to fit: 69–73 Mustang/Cougar: 351W, 71–73 Mustang/Cougar, 66–73 Fairlane, 68–73 Torino/Cyclone/Montego, 66–73 Ranchero, 66–67 Falcon, 66–69 Comet, 71–73 Comet: 260–302W, Tube Size 1.5", Collector Size 3", Black High Temp Paint They reckon these may fit but they are LHD headers, has anyone fitted these in a similar application and know how much steering is or isnt an issue? Or alternately any other options suitable and available locally, or anyone had experiance making some fit. Cheers in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MRWEST Posted November 28, 2016 Author Share Posted November 28, 2016 Yeah have spoken to them since sounds like they have some that fit but wont fit GT40 angled plug heads. Since been told that they are different to the regular windsor angles so should be ok Have ordered a set so will soon find out i guess Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
