Question 78 F-150 headers????

Hi, i have a 1978 F-150 460 4 wheel drive with a manual transmission, and i was wondering if there is headers i can buy....i have tried looking but all the ones i find are for the automatic transmission (the clutch gets in the way) . Do i have to bend up my own or is there a place i can buy them??? Does anyone have the same problem or have a set of headers on there 1978 F-150 460 4 wheel drive with a manual transmission?
Any help will be appreciated...Thanks..-Karl

I have a 78 F150 460/4x4 too but with a c6. I know, L&L makes a pair that will fit, but they are fenderwell exit. There's just no way to get the exhaust through the driver side of the crossmember because of the transfer case and front drive shaft. I think the fenderwell exit headers look awesome.

I think someone else makes headers that fit, but I can't remember who it was. Check the exhaust forum for older posts on 460 headers. You should find more info there.

Good luck.

Go with L+L, they make the fenderwell headers and they are lifetime warranty with thick mounting flange's. Check out my gallery, I got them on my 79
