Fenton Ford Flathead Cast Iron Headers with Flanges
Fenton headers fit most chassis from 1937-53 with stock steering gear. Application
Note: These probably won't fit Model T or A due to narrow frame width,
particularly on passenger side. 1948 and older engines will require
dipstick tube modifications. 1948-52 Ford F1 (1/2 ton) pick-ups will
have interference with one bolt on the stock steering box. That bolt
can usually be modified so that the headers can be used. The headers
will probably not work in 3/4 ton or larger trucks 1948-52. 1942-48
Mercury cars will probably require shimming of the motor mount for
steering.
Get a set to hug your block at only $289.95. Specify part #7101 when calling your Egge Machine Expert at 1-800-866-3443.
