    Anyone have headers on a 250 Maverick? If so, please state the type, dual or single. I need to get some info on routing of the collectors to clear the starter , bell housing and frame rail.

    If Frank was a nice guy, he would answer your questions since he put the engine and the header in the car I sto...er, uh...bought from him.

    Thanks for the pics. The last one really helps. But what brand were they and were they singles? I can't really tell. Also, how close is the collector to the engine flange and outside rail?

    "66,
    i told you terry, didn't know....:biglaugh: :biglaugh:
    it is a clifford header,single. i had it coated. it fit good like it was but i cut the collector flange off, extended the tube 3' and turned the flange to clear everything and put it back on.

    it had a "port divider, some head work, carb, cam,... usual stuff .ran great, sounded great"...untill someone .."stole" it...frank...
