Headers

I have a 1976 F100 4x4 with a four speed manual transmission. I put a 74 model 302 in it. I ordered some headers but they would not work because the engine did not come as a option on this particualr model. The passenger side will work, but the drivers side will not work because of the clutch and the four wheel drive. I have 3 questions.

1. Would headers off of a later model 302 work with this set up?

2. Do I need to use custom steet rod block hugger headers?

3. Do I need have have someone custom make me a pair of headers?

Thanks in advance.

Headers

You have to buy them for the application. If there was not an application listed and you bought some other application your headers have a great possibility of not fitting.

1- No

2- Maybe, check with the makers.

3- You will need to find a company that lists this application or have them built. There are some companies listed here in other threads that may be able to help you.
