460 headers for a 76 Gran Torino

Hi;

I am looking for headers to fit a 460 build from Roush going into my 76 Torino.

I was told to find either 2" or better yet 2 1/8", was told 1 7/8 would be too restrictive as the motor will be putting out 620-640hp. Roush should do the dyno with my headers to be more accurate.



Thanks!

I am running 740 Hp in my 72 Torino with 1 7/8 headers. I know I could make more power with 2 or 2 1/8 but am satisfied with what I have.

I have hooker headers attached to a 351M/400 currently, my understanding is that they won't fit the 460 block.
