I was looking for headers to put on my 460 in my E250 that I am converting to 4 wheel drive.

Anyone have any info on this? Like will headers made for a pickup work??

buy some cheap hedmans and cut them to fit, not so hard if you have a cutter and welder.

they where 460 pickup shorty headers.i had to bend the floor a little bit to get them in because i put them on the motor first and then droped the new motor in.I didnt want to fight trying to put them on with the motor already in,but i wouldn't have had to tweak the floor if i did it why the motor was in.

Hmmm, I wonder if full lengths would fit too than. I plan on stepping up the cam and a better intake to go with the 750 cfm carb I got on it. I want it to breath better and prefer full length over shorty
