I have a 69' 390 c4 automatic f250 camper special and am interested in putting headers just wondering what type of headers i should go with any suggestions? Am kind of new to this thanks

 

Does your CS have a sway bar mounted btwn the radius arms? If so, it''s got to go because it'll be occupying the same space as the future headers.

IMO, buy the best that fits your budget. Would $550 be too much for easy to install, thick-flanged headers where ya don't have to jack up the engine to install??? Nor will it trap the starter and require the headers to be removed to replace the starter?

Low buck solutions include painted Hooker, Flowtech, and Hedman.

Medium cost are "Elite" headers from the above brands that are ceramic coated.

Higher end include Stan's and Sanderson.

Look for thick flanges to avoid warpage and thick-walled tubing for longevity. 2X with hi-temp coatings.

Good luck!

 

Thanks for the info hiO silver i will check all these things out am working on it little at a time

 

I went with Sanderson headers for easy of installation: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...-pictures.html
