I need help finding some chrome headers.

I have looked for chrome headers for a 351m 2wd 78 f-150 all day. Can someone please point me in the direction of where I may find a set.

depending on where you live and how much you want to spend, you could probably have a pair custom made i suppose.

How about sending some out to a chrome shop? If bling is what you are after, then just have a set chromed.

Chrome discolors quickly, and might not look so nice after a run or two.

How about Jet Hot?
I love it and it stays looking real nice for quite some time:

Your best bet is a 300 series stainless header or getting a set of steel headers and send them off to get ceramic coated. Most often the ceramic coating on the off the shelf headers you buy is inferior. I paid $900 for a set of ceramic coated headers for my 04' and they started to rust in less than 6 months.
