Factory Headers
« on: February 02, 2014, 03:18:33 PM »
Ford factory cast headers "shorties" c1ae 9431 c.  I am looking for the estimated value of the headers. On the  right side header has been welded, has no more cracks.

I have seen nice sets go for $500-$700, so I would say yours is worth at least $400 - Jay

Does anyone know if the shorty cast headers will fit a Galaxie with column shift auto trans and power steering?  Would it require some tweaking or is it a "no way"?  How about the long cast headers?  I suppose the drivers side is the issue...   :D

Thanks,

Heo, just to confirm you're talking about the shorty headers on your 64 P code?  I'm not too worried about the P/S, I think the head pipe could be routed around it...

Thanks,

No problem with either. My last 63 had long tube cast headers w/ auto and PS, and my current 63 has shorties and the same setup.
