I'm thinking about swapping my 302 for a 351W but part of the problem is I can't find an "affordable" header for a 68 mustang with a manual transmission.Anyone know who makes some?

I used a set of long tube headers, but the left one needed to be dimpled in order to clear the stearing box. Also if you have power steering, you need a drop bracket for the rack in order for the headers to clear. Overall I am satisfied with it, but the 351W is a tight fit in the '68. If I had it to do over again, I think I would give strong consideration to a stroker kit on a 302.
