Header Question


I just dropped my 351W in my 93 mustang for the V8 conversion. After searching the web i havent found much. It doesnt look like theres to much room between the steering shaft and the the left side of the motor. Will i have room for long tubes or am i stuck with shorty headers. I read one post on another website saying the only way i can get long tubes in there is to remove the K-Member.

you can put in long tubes but might have to change steering shafts or "massage" you headers to make them fit

BBk headers fit fine in foxes even with swaps and stock K members.

I had BBk on my 302 and 351 fox.
