Headers for SOHC in 64 Galaxie - Sold
« on: February 20, 2019, 03:09:27 PM »
These headers will fit a 64 Galaxie with the stock front suspension, with an SOHC installed on the factory mounts.  I used these headers on my 64 Galaxie in 2007-2008; after that I installed a Morrison front clip in the car and built new headers to match that.  If I recall correctly, a very small part of the inboard side of the driver's side control arm has to be trimmed 1/4" or so to make these fit.  The flanges on these headers are 1/2" thick for a good seal, and will fit either factory or aftermarket SOHC heads.  The primary tubes are 2-1/8" diameter, collectors are 3-1/2" slip-on.  The primaries are close to equal length, but not exact. There are two primary tubes on each side that are slip-fit, for ease of installation.  These headers were ceramic coated when new.  They are solid, no rust holes or anything because the car was never driven in winter (as if LOL!).  They have a bung welded into each collector for an oxygen sensor.  $850 + shipping for the pair.

HI
Do you know if these [dynomax] would fit a 63 Galaxie with 428?

No way the truck headers would fit a Galaxie, sorry.

Thank you.
I was hoping so after seeing your dyno results with them.

I'll take the truck headers if they're still available.

OK, but please note that each primary tube has a hole in the top, for an exhaust thermocouple for use on the dyno.  I neglected to mention that in the original ad; sorry about that.  I have now edited the ad to include that.

The headers are yours if you still want them, and if so please send me your shipping address and I will figure a shipping cost.  Thanks, Jay

Yup! Saw that, shouldn't be too bad to weld them up. I'm local and can pick them up, was emailing you about dropping off my valve covers for some engraving. This is Zack.

Didn't know that was you, Zack.  You can pick up the headers when you drop off the valve covers next week - Jay
