    302 headers will not work on a 351w in a maverick. Tubular automotive made some. Not sure if they still do. Use the search function and you can see all the posts that have been made about that subject and any others.:)

    Early(probably pre-74 or so)manifolds fit tight,'69-70 351W or some old 289 manifolds will fit.But they will be tight,right up against the a-frame bolts.
