ok now that i got it sparked up i got to order all the extra parts (fans shifter ect.) but anyways i need a pair of headers. Im gonna hit up the local junkyards tomorrow for a pair of explorer headers but if i cant find any (which i dont think i will) im gonna order um online, and seein how i just blew $450 on parts tonite, im lookin for a cheap set now and i'm gonna get custom ones later when my wallet gets a chance to recover. So if anyones got any old ones layin around and would like to exchange them for some cash, post a picture and a price. thanx

I have the full length headers from Hooker for this converstion (as long as your truck is 2wd). But probably more than you want to spend.

Yeah right now im lookin for a cheapy pair, then later on when I get my welder im gonna try to make a custom pair and if that doesnt work, then im gonna get somethin like a more pricey pair of full lengths.

But what websites are you talkin about foxracin? I tried ebay and summit and nothin came up for shelby tri-ys

Found a lot at Summit with a wide difference in price (quality?)

Another place I've seen in Mustang magazines is www.stainlessworks.net
They have larger size primarys (1 5/8") for higher hp motors. Didn't check the site for price.

those were all to pricey for what im lookin for but did find a pair of full length headers from flowtech for 150 with shipping. they arent made for the swap but looking at them and comparing the positions of the pipes it looks like they'll fit... plus the guy said if they dont to just send um back.
thanx for the help

There not made for the ranger but they fit perfect. I have a set and im using vert mounts and they dropped right in. I didnt have to change one single thing or cut anything.

well, i have two set, one are duff and the others are block huggers, the duff are for a 4wd ranger with a 302 and the other work in 2wd, i just had them on my ranger, just took motor out , i got a t70 turbo kit with turbo headers so i dont need these anymore, and they are 1 5/8 also, cuz i had 1 1/2 but i have a 331 stroker in it and needed bigger headers, just to show u it on youtube under spoolinranger, its purple with black bed, u may be able to see the headers in the idle and rev video, just let me know

ok well after takin just about everything apart to try to get these to fit, it doesnt look like its gonna work. I'm gonna try again tomorrow, but if that doesnt work im gonna touch up the scratches and put in on ebay. anyways now i probably am gonna need a set from here, but i actually got a little more of a budget since i told my mom "thats what happens when you go cheap" and even though I dont think they're gonna fit i really like the full length look so cee21, I need to know how much you would let those hookers go for, If possible a part #, and What finish they are.

And spoolinranger, I just need to know what finish your block huggers are

thanx.
