Hey y'all, i have a 1955 f-100 with a 351w and long tube headers. I'm trying to see if anyone knows of an exhaust system that fits the truck, or if i need to go to a shop to have one custom built. Attached is a video of the first start up of the truck.

Hi crt. I can't help you with your exhaust question but guys will be along soon to help you.
It welcome to FTE the best Ford truck Forum on the World Wide Web!
I'm fairly certain you'll have to have an exhaust system made. I'm in the same situation but with a 390 and Ford cast iron exhaust manifolds from a 406 that are shaped like a mid-length header.
If you can do some welding there are those builder kits. I'm probably going to go that route.
Are those tilt front end hinges poking out of the valance in your picture. Mine had that back in the 1980's. I went back to the stock hood setup. It took some effort to go back, but it's just my personal preference.
You most likely will need to have your exhaust system custom made . Have a 428 w / cast iron exhaust headers &a custom exhaust system was made for it . Make a modification & it creates 2 more . The build on Art was like that . Reason it took decades .
I always used Block huggers and Flow master 40 mufflers and let the muffler shop do the exhaust and bending and install--- take it in the AM pick it up in the afternoon and price is right and a quality job---- exhaust out the front of the rear tires just under running boards-
Good luck-
I had my exhaust made of 2 ½" 304 stainless steel by MRT (Mustang Racing Technologies) in Plymouth, Michigan. They have a mandrel pipe bender. The nice part about 304 SS is that it can be polished and it keeps its shine. That nice engine deserves a good exhaust.
