He will be mmaking some headers for a Pantera I an engine for. bHe jusst did a sett for another friends 440 in a Challenger they weere much better than the Super Comps that wwere on it.

I voted yes, but I don't think I'd buy them right now. My engine just doesn't need them yet. Long tube headers aren't going to help a 132hp engine much. Plus, I just brought shorties, I don't want to ditch them yet. If you think the panthers are tight under the hood as far as header clearance, our '69 Fairlane with a 302/3-on-the-tree has absoutly no clearance for any type of header thanks to the shift linkage.1990 Country Squire - under restoration

That was me. Full length headers are a pain in the ass and a ground clearance issue. For all the annoyance of installing them, the marginal gains they produce don't justify the work and expense IMHO. The collectors end up dragging the ground, the floorpans cook your feet, and they leak and blow collecor gaskets all the time. Screw that.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Shorties lose their effectiveness as your power level goes up. Id rather have a good set of long tubes for my motor and keep the exhaust pulses seperated longer for the scavenging effect.
