I remember someone asking about headers on their T-Bird and Alexander posting a picture of the FPA shorty headers.
I just wanted to let anyone who might be thinking of installing a set that they go on easy, you just have to remove the motor mount bolts and raise it a couple inches. they clear the frame rails and steering box easily.
I was lucky taking the exhaust manifolds off and not breaking the bolts off in the head. I ran the engine until it was hot and applied pressure on the bolts gradually until they broke loose.I used a rust penetrant on the bolts a couple days before the removal.
