Questions & Answers

Will these work on my 93 5's heads?

They work great on my 1994 Mustang GT with Trick Flow heads and Ford Motorsport shortie headers.br> I'm very happy with them, and you'll be too.

Will these fit a 1993 Cobra with shorty headers that have been ceramic coated?

When I installed bbk ceramic shorty headers on my 95 Cobra, I used these, which worked perfectly and were longer than the ones supplied by bbk, which were too short.

Will these fit a 351W with shortys from Pacesetter?

The chances are good. These may need to be trimmed; I used them on a 351 Windsor and had to cut the locking tab. The tab can be trimmed, according to the instructions. The size of the tubes will have a significant impact. Trimming is more difficult as the tube gets larger. I was 1 3/4" tall.

You can use during the installation of these, which is extremely useful
5/5

Make sure you have the right bolts (like these!). Make sure you have the right gaskets for the job. And your new headers aren't going to let you down! The hex pattern on the outside of the bolt head can be used with your socket/wrench during installation, which is extremely useful. Alternatively, an allen key can be used to unlock the hex pattern inside the head. It simply provides you with another option if your shorties are limiting your space.

It is important to have a sense of style
3/5

Bolts are great if you get the right ones after three calls. The person on the phone doesn't understand parts or how they work; some are round locks, while others are tear drop; not all motors have the same bolt spacing, so fit is important; after three attempts and still receiving the wrong ones, I went to a local parts store, spent more, but received the correct part number I had ordered the first time; NOT THE BOLT FAULT. There's a fantastic item on the market. I'm going to buy more things from the neighborhood.

Sbf engines with headers will benefit greatly from this
5/5

On my SBF TRI-X, it worked perfectly. On AFR185 heads, Y headers are not a problem.

These are the solution to leaking headers, and they are a great product
5/5

Use a good gasket and these, torque them once, lock them in place, and leave them alone. You won't have to deal with them any longer.

Stock Bolts were discarded – These are fantastic
5/5

These are a total pain in the neck. It's a good thing I didn't use the standard bolts.
