72 w headers
hey im having kind of a hard time trying to find a set of headers that will fit a 72 windsor in a 1980 f100 flareside because of the angle of the exhaust had to originally cut the frame to put the motor in any suggestions

A 72 351w or 302 will drop right in with no cutting. You just have to get the correct exhaust manifolds for these trucks. The 302 and 351w exhaust manifolds are different.
Same with the headers. Buy a set for a 302 or 351w for a 80-up truck and they should fit. Just make sure when ordering a 351w set you specify a 84-up truck, the early 351 trucks had 351m's installed, not 351w's.
