slm ranger · 06-14-2012, 09:35 AM

1985 Ranger / 351W / T5 / Can't find headers , holding me down in a bad way. Any help I thank you in advance . Long tube or shorts could go either .

I'm not sure if the 302 headers can fit a 351 but if they can then there are a few pairs for sale in the classifieds.

You'll need to use fenderwell headers made for something else or get short/long tubes made. Lot's of fabrication skills needed in any case.

This is one of the major reasons 99% of the swaps are 5.0 based.

Total Performance use to make headers for a 351 ranger so there may be a set still floating around. They were for 2wd trucks and heard bad reviews from quite a few people. A 302 swap header may work depending on your engine placement or build a set. I cut up a brand new set of long tubes and made a few new pieces when i did mine.
