Nice dude. And yea, nothing wrong with that. I wanna rebuild the motor too but the wiring in this thing is totally F'd. Then on top of that I gotta flush the motor of coolant and wire up all the lights. The headlights and brake lights work, that's it lol none of the marker lights Work at all

If you are on a budget another good choice is also The dual exhaust manifolds off EFI 300 ( 87-96 ). They are basically a pair of cast iron shorty headers. You should have no issues finding a pair for less then $100. I paid as little as $15.00 for a pair.
Do headers make a difference on V8's?
Well they make a bigger difference on the 300. You are dumping 6, 50 ci. cylinders into a single exhaust manifold. It's just a little on the restrictive side.
And top that off the 300 is trying to breathe thru a straw ( aka 1V carb ) .

Yea I'm wanting to put a bigger intake and Carb on it. I'm used to carbs, used to have a 84 Monte ss. I just don't like all the wires in the newer cars and surprisingly this truck has got a shot load of wires. But thanks man lol. But the soonest I can get a v8 I'm getting it.
Lots of companies make headers. Hedman, Hooker, and some of the cheaper brands all make headers. I prefer Hedman the best.

clifford headers
I wouldn't trust Clifford Performance products anymore. Not after some of the things that I've heard about them. Check around on here and on fordsixperformance.com and see what they have to say about the newer Clifford Performance products.
However, Hooker and Hedman Hedders also make headers for the 300.
