Well I spoke to Stan over at FPA yesterday and ordered my headers and a drop down bracket for my power steering, should arrive in about 2 weeks. In the meantime I'm on the hunt for a good 2.5" exhaust setup. Already been 1 recommendation for the Flowmaster American Thunder exhaust kit by JamesonRacing. Any other kits you guys would recommend looking at? One related question while I'm on the topic. Where do you guys prefer the exhaust pipes to terminate? The current exhaust setup has the exit point located just behind the rear wheel inside of the wheel well. I'm thinking at the very least I'd like the tip out of the wheel well an inch or so. Should I keep that location or run the pipes all the way to the back bumper as I'm used to seeing?

@ScotiaFE: Sorry, no photo of the stock air filter. It had an aftermarket free flow on it when I purchased it.

@manofmerc: I tried several different vendors. Been in communication with Stan and it looks like I'm ordering a set from FPA on Monday.  Here is a good pic of how far offset most headers are from the GT heads..



^^ GT head is on the left.

66fairlane.. thanks mate! Nice silver fox you have yourself.

JamesonRacing.. thanks for the suggestions!

Hello all, first time poster here. I used the search function but could not locate the exact information I needed hopefully I can get some help. I have a nearly all stock 1967 Fairlane GTA I've owned for about 15 years. Replaced the front end when I got it with a PST poly kit and put a 4 barrel 625 Holley in it with an aftermarket free flow air cleaner in it. Those are pretty much the only non-stock parts on it. 76k original miles:





Wife and 2 kids making huge dollar investments a no-go for some time but I've been able to keep it streetable for the entire time I've owned it. That brief history aside... I have a hairline crack starting on the passenger side exhaust manifold. Probably not worth it to repair if it's even possible. Considering the cost of a replacement manifold at a few hundred dollars I'd really rather like to get a set of headers to replace the stock manifolds instead if economically feasible. I've read from numerous sources including this forum that it's the best starting point to help a 390FE. Quick Specs:

390 GT 14 bolt heads C7AE-A
C6 column shift
Factory AC
Power steering
Power Brakes

I've yet to find a set of full length headers for my application from Hooker, Sanderson, FPA, Crites, Dougs, JBA and a few others. Some come really close but don't quite cooperate with all the factory equipment. The 14 bolt GT heads with the slightly offset pattern have been the biggest gating factor by far. I've read I can probably get Hookers to cooperate but I'd need to hog out~elongate the holes to make the ports line up.. not ideal by a longshot. Cutting to the chase.. does anyone know of a set of full length headers that will fit out of the box? -or- Know of a manufacturer that carry's a set of shorty's that will accommodate the GT 14 bolt head that I can get a local shop to custom the rest to fit? Dropping $1500 for a set of headers or stock CJ manifolds are not an option at this point unless I hit the lotto soon. 

Thanks in advance
