79 4wd 460 headers?

does anybody know where you can get a set of headers to fit a 1979 1 ton 4X4 with a stick for a reasonable price?

ebay, L&L makes fenderwell exit, but they tend to be a bit pricey. Good Luck.

I have been looking *everywhere* for these guys. Hooker used to make a set, but they are no longer being made. The hookers also fit the Class C motorhime built on a Ford chaisis. I am going to try the Hedman headers that fit the Class C motorhome with a 460. I am ordering on line and if they don't fit, I get to send them back. I have also considered a pair of block huggers or shorty headers for the application.

If I were close enough I would drive to South San Francisco and have Sanderson take a look about building me a set.

Let's keep each other informed about our progress.

Contact me via my email.

I have a 78 E250 Pathfinder conversion.

I went over to the muffler guy today and he said he *thinks* the hedman will work. I am still concerned where the tube on the drivers side will come out. Afterall, the front driveshaft is right there.

This is on a 78 E250 460.

Thanks for the reply, I sent Stan an email. Hopefully he can answer my questions, plus, I will be in Seattle next week. I can go pay him a visit.
