headers
brian1080, Those look like hedmans.
2tone250, I have a 1973 f100 2wd with 390 auto. I bought Hedman headers, stripped off the paint (the instructions say it will burn off because it is not hi-temp), and painted it with hi-temp paint. They went on easy, front clip was already off, and seem to be doing fine. I put a heat blanket over the starter because the headers are CLOSE, but so far no problems. The headers were fairly cheap and came with special collectors that make it easier to adjust to match the exhaust system.
