Dropped the Cleveland back in today with the Sandersoms attached!!!

after some headaches with my stroker build today it went back in with the headers attached. What a time saver just a little FYI in case anyone wonders if it can be done.Now back at it to get these 422 ponies roaring..

Not bad Dennyb68, I had a FPA make my headers for my Cleveland. Had to fit engine then feed the headers up from the underside of my Mach 1.

Good call, you probably saved an hour of fishing the bolts in and probably had better access to get them snugged up. They tuck in so well and close to the block and are a great pain reliever when compared to other cheaper full length models that are beat to fit and hang lower than you might like. No gaskets required, I used the Ultra Blue sealer and no leaks!

Yup I did it over the fenders the 1st time and that wont happen again!! My pics are too big to load onto the site. I will try to shrink them.

Good job!

 

I tried it on mine and had to take off the right side, after doing such a great job of applying the sealant. I had to install the Rt header from underneath. I now have a paper's thickness from the shock tower.

Here are some photos of my FPA headers fitted to my Cleveland in my 70 Mach 1. 4V with 1-3/4 primary size pipes.

Wow, tons of clearance. What motor mounts did you use. I wonder why mine are so tight.

 

Sorry my bad, I made a mistake. I have the Sanderson shorties. I wish I bought yours. They fit perfect!

I was able to do the same with my flow tech long tubes on engine. It takes 2 people and the lift attachment that allows you to rotate the engine while on the cherry picker.

3 times was enough, I hope its in to stay now.

Prayers1 the motor mounts where made in the usa, company name was

 

Anchor Industries, part number is 6038E.

 

Iam running a toploader beyond my Cleveland, only problem with headers L/H side pipe is nearly touching bellhousing. They where not cheap but worth every penny I spent.
