Headers for 1966 Galaxie small block

Please welcome me as a Galaxie owner, I just purchased a 1966 Galaxie with a 289 and auto trnas.

Does anyone know who makes headers for a small block 1966 Galaxie? Looking for a set of full length tubed headers. Seem only to find headers for big block engines.

Thanx in advance for you input.

Hedman Headers part number 89470

Scott (psivory) used them on his '67 289 Galaxie w/ power steering, so they should be good for any '65-'68 small block.

Here's a pic of his engine compartment...


I'm sure he'll chime in soon.

Sorry, my Galaxie has power steering, power brakes, auto trans.

Are Scott's headers shorty's or full length tubes?

Thanx for the prompt reply to my questions, looking forward to picking your minds when I start asking dumb questions on re-doing my Galaxie.

Scott's are shorties. The application they are specified for IIRC is an '80s-'90s F150/Bronco.

Here is a link...

Last time I looked they were about $50 less than that site quotes, so you can probably find them cheaper elsewhere.

Took me almost a year to find those that fit my 67 with a 289, automatic, ps.
To my knowledge nobody makes a set of full for the 65-68 SB Galaxie engines.
Welcome to the Forum!!!

As far as I can tell the problem with all the other styles of headers is the ps box and the front cross member. I don't think that the Fairlane etc will work but I am not 100% sure.
