Headers are needed for a 66 Fairlane 4speed non power steering 427 with low riser heads. I'm running 6113 Hookers on a 390 currently. I don't want take the car apart until winter and I'm having the 427 dynoed in August, the shop doesn't have headers for any FE's. Thought maybe someone has a set they're not going to use. Thanks

Denis, just be aware that most car headers aren't going to work with most dyno set-ups.  Guess how I know.  At any rate, after going through the same thing that you are (re. the lack of FE anything out there in the world of the small block chebby) I wound up using my Cobra's headers to get the job done.  Definitely not optimum for the job but it's also what I have in the car, so............ 

You may have to get a set of old headers then cut and re-angle the head tubes to clear the under engine area where it'll be attached to the dyno cart.

This is mine on a DTS dyno.
