66 170 header

[bmbm]

E-Bay stainless two outlet - I got lucky the mini starter works with the 250 & with the taller block there's room for the exhaust. Rear pipe goes over the starter between the bell housing & firewall & front pipe drops down between the end of the starter & frame. I also wrapped them in header wrap so I hopefully won't cook the starter with heat. I mocked it all up this spring then pulled it & painted it & putting it back together now as time allows.

Mine has the high mount big old style starter. I could probably tweak the header enough to work if it didn't hit the starter.

Well, after hours of beating, cussing, prying, and welding I got the eBay header to fit. FYI, if you're going to use one of these in a bronco, go ahead and grind the weld off of the rear collector flange before you ever try to put it on. The way it comes, it hits the frame. Turn it the same way the front flange is and weld it back on.

Glad to hear you got it installed. Now it's time to move on to solve the next issue....
