1979 F150 headers

I am thinking of puting headers on my 4x4 79 f150. Any sugestions for good headers? Good fit is important I will be installing them myself and not a whole lot of confidence.Is this a good performance adder? It has a 351m,any experience with this application?? Thanks Troy

I can't recomend a brand but I would get the ceramic coating. It helps protect the headers and reduce underhood temps.

I have Dynomax Headers on my 2wd 460 and they fit great and haven't leaked in the 3 years since I put them on.

I have Dynomax ceramic coated headers ($225 in Jegs) on my '73 F100 2wd 390. They fit great and no leaks. Just be sure to retighten the header bolts after it's been driven.
