Can anyone tell, headers ????

So a guy has these for sale on local cl, but he doesn't know what they fit. He got them from a buddy who had dent sides. Of course he can't find a part # on them. Can anyone tell what they fit from the pic?

All I can say is that they are not for an FE where the bolt holes are inline vertically.

Have you tried matching/comparing the head flanges and bolt patterns to a 302, 351M400, or 460??

I'm pretty sure 351/400m, but I was wondering about chassis. He isn't close enough to just go look. If I get a chance I will probably get them and give them a shot. It is about 2 hrs away, so I will have more in gas then in the headers. I know most headers look about the same so it is probably a long shot.

Not 460 because of the bolt holes. The are all in a line like the 390's.

Do they look like they are for a dent though? And do they look 2wd?

I think they are for 2wd's because I don't think the driver's side would clear. They are hedman's right?

He thinks so, and the sticker looks like it says hedman. I think it is worth the chance for $30. Wife will be a little grumpy for a little while if not but, if not for this then it will be something else.

'did some surfing and came up with the pic below. The geometry is consistent and the layout seems the same. However, the ones pictured above have longer primaries and the flanges are different.

What say ye?

I looked at that pic, and they do look like them. Wish they had more pics, but I couldn't find any.

looks to me like the pipes are arranged different at the collector. Possibly for a different fireing order. but they are not for a 302, same thing with the bolt holes, not in line.

could be that they are just clocked different..... far from being an expert

summit has a picture of hedmans for a 351 .. they look quite different, but these could be an older model.
