Default Headers for V8 ford swap

My swap is in progress, now it's time to fit some headers.

Try some mustang 5.0l shorty, but they need too much work.

anybody try some block hugger?

Thanks

Somebody used some Headman headers from 2 different applications. They were able to special order a left & a right through Summit Racing. I can not remember all (or any) of the details. I used the ones from Martin.

Last I heard Martin will sell just his headers as a set for $650. The price may have gone up as this was over a year ago.
