78 ranchero headers
#1
#4
The frames and suspension parts are almost identical from '72-'79 a few changes are here and there but I'm almost 100% positive they should fit your '78 if they are built for a '73 Ranchero. I installed a 460 in my '79 and used Hooker 6126 SC headers with no mods, the starter and power steering gear box even come out without header removal and these headers are for a '75-'76 Torino. The chassis class supports Torino, LTD II, Montego, Cougar, Elite, '77 on T-bird. I hope this helps. Todd

Chassis and powertrain components: 72/76 Torino/Montego // 1974/79 Cougar // 1977/79: LTD II/T-Bird/Mark V.
Many of the parts are also the same as: 1972/76 T-Bird // 1973/76 Mark IV.
The 1974/76 Torino Elite (Body Style 65M) has a different roof line than other Torino 2 door HT models, otherwise it's exactly the same car.
Did'ja know that the long straight bed side mouldings on Ranchero's are the same 1968/79?
Many of the chassis/powertrain components are also the same. These Ranchero's, Torino's, Fairlanes, LTD II's and all the rest may not look the same from the outside, but....
Behind the sheet metal skin...it's a different story.
