429-460 headers for 71 torino

ok guys my 71 torino project is gettin close to done ive jus got a few more things to take care of. i still havent got my headers yet. ive been looking at hooker and places like that and they make a set for fox body mustang with 2 inch tubes and a 3 1/2 collecter. the actual torino headers or only like 1 7/8 tubes. if im wantin a little more flow will the fox body headers fit in my torino?

No they wont. The 1 7/8" tubes will flow plenty.....enough to make 700 horsepower!! Plus they are designed to fit the Torino.

1-7/8" is too small for 700 HP.

The hooker 6201 header is 2-1/8" with a 3-1/2" collector. IT will fit the 70-71 Torino as long as you have manual steering.

Torino Style, did you try this header type? Iwas wondering because I have a set hanging on the wall. Thanks

dacofa.are those the hooker 6115 headers,if so you want to sell them?

If you've got them hanging on the wall, try them, it's free research since you've already got them.

What's the worst that could happen... them not fitting and you needing to hang them back on the wall for another day?

FWIW I used Hedman coated long tubes on my '69 with power steering and a Tremec 5 speed. Hydralic clutch 'tho so now mechanical linkage to mess with. It did take a little banging and tweaking but not too much. Good luck, GL Gordon, South Texas
