We have a 56 F100. with a 521 big block, Ford Racing SCJ heads.Have been looking for a set of headers for this.Has a custom rack front suspension,not sure of the brand but looks like RCMS.Any tips on who makes or sells such a thing will be appreciated. Thanks!

I have been looking for headers for my 429 with LTD frame/front clip. Not many headers available. I tried a couple of the shorty headers from eBay but nothing fit.

I found "Ford Powertrain Applications" makes headers to fit.

Give them a call and leave a message. They will call you back.

Thanks guys! Looks like FPA and Sanderson both make shorty style headers for CJ heads.I was looking for long tubes but the shorties would be way easier.Not a race deal anyway.

You could look at the Hooker 6126-1HKR Super Competition Long Tube Headers

Yeah.I have used Hooker Super Comps made for 70,71 Cyclone,Torino CJs in similar situations.You can usually use a couple tubes on each side as made but the others have to be extensively modified to make them work...and they really hang down too low for street use.
