So i want to get a little more power from my '84' F250 2wd 6cyl. and thought maybe a header would be an inexpensive way to gain some ponys'. Can anyone tell me about clearance issues with a 2wd or mounting problems? This is a 1bbl carburated motor. And what about the strange way that the exhaust manifold shares the same mounting stud with the intake manifold, is this a mounting issue? What brands have you guys used?

Reason: misspelling
i found a set of headers for a 300 years ago in a bone yard the front three tubes went to one collector and the rear three went to another.i think if memory serves me rite they were headman's.never had no issues with them bein hard on starters or nuthin.you will loose bottom end torqe tho and your top end will get higher
A good cheap upgrade for your 300 is to
swap out for late model efi headers
also there are adapters to go up to a
4 barrel carb
a 350 cfm to a 500 cfm works very good
check with the guys in the 6 cyl. engine forum
also another site to check out is www.fordsix.com
anything and everything for your I6 will be found here they answer all questions... i am a reg. from there. my bronco could pract. rip trees out the ground with no problem
And what about the strange way that the exhaust manifold shares the same mounting stud with the intake manifold, is this a mounting issue?
The header should come with adapters to make it fit. If you notice also, how the exhaust manifold and the intake come together under the carb. This is to warm the carb up and keep it from icing up and being cold natured in colder weather. If you go to the clifford site, you will see kits where they try to run coolant through a block under the carb to try and avoid this problem.
