    Anybody know what headers should fit a 351W with the Rod & Custom power rack (obviously no shock towers) and floor shift? Crites and customs of course, but I'm mainly looking for larger tube (1 3/4 minimum), equal length ideas.
    I appreciate your thoughts, Joe.

    I searched on the summit webpage. Im going with a 331 and the r&c system. I will most likely have custom headers made.

    Take a look at BBK's 351W Fox body swap headers, I have a set in my LS-1 Maverick. All I did was cut off the Ford flanges, reshape the tube ports, and weld them to the LS flanges. Everything else fit like a glove, including clearance around the steering shaft. Not saying this will work, allegedly though, the LS and 351W are quite similar in dimensions...

    The reason Im gonna use custom headers is because I want 2" primaries.
