    351 in a fox - questions

    Can someone that has put a 351 based motor in a fox point me in the direction of a good set of headers. I know Ford Racing used to make headers for this, but I can't seem to find them anymore. Only brands I'm seeing are BBK, Doug's and MAC. Has anyone had any good / bad experience doing this swap with the headers ? What brands used and did you have to modify the headers at all to get them to fit ? Long tubes or short tubes - doesn't really matter. Thanks

    Will a regular fox-body h-pipe work or are the h-pipes different also ?

    Bbk or Mac will are decent. Get at the very least 1.3/4 primary tubes. If your trying to make huge hp make sure n get 2" primary tubes. Kooks makes nice headers for that swap if big hp is your main goal.

    Ended up going with the BBK 1 3/4" primary tubes. Fit good and tucked in nicely except for around the steering shaft. Good product I felt for the money.

    IMO BBK's are the best bang for the buck. Mac shit rust like crazy.
