Re: 351w maverick headers?

Hooker makes a set that work - more or less. Chopping the towers is to make getting the plugs out - not for header clearance.

Re: 351w maverick headers?

Napa has Hooker headers that fit the maverick and the part number is
bk 3353482 for $174 plus shipping and handling.
This part number is for 302 / 5.0, you will find that the 351w / 5.7w uses
small block parts such as headers oil pans valve covers timing chain covers.

Re: 351w maverick headers?

302 maverivk headers will not fit a 351w maverick

theyll bolt up to the motor but they wont fit in the car

tubular automotive is the only set out right now that fits a 351w with no chops. they run like 400 bucks new tho

ive done the 302 maverick swap and it was tight but the 351w takes that even further, see my threads in the making progress forum on both my mavs. the 302 and the 351
