I think the Aussie headers are AWESOME and I may try them on my coupe project. They are similar in design to the Sanderson headers, but those headers are plain steel cost $345 uncoated and over $500 with the ceramic coating. Also, the Sanderson headers state that they are NOT to be used with header gaskets. This makes me think that they may be a 1 application header in that once they get torqued down and "blueprinted" to a particular set of heads, they could possibly leak when put on a different set of heads.

I have a set of Red's Passenger Duel Tube headers on my 56 Customline. they only have a 2" collector and even that flange comes right next to the steering shaft. The Sanderson design looks like it dumps further forward. May be just what I need

I see they are a tuned length system, but they look great.

Here is a link to the Rex headers.

As you can see, they are way different to the TBird style, and twice the price.

Yet they are a tad better being Stainless.

And we all give and share on this site, right.

What is so close to the engine of the sedan??? I would think the Tbirds are tighter every where?

Got a reply from the vendor, he doesn't know about fitment, but they are a Sanderson design, except for the flanges.

I've hijacked a topic on 5752-113 head porting (sorry CJ), so i thought i'd open a new topic on these headers.

(To see CJ's topic with some info on the headers )

The headers on fleabay are AU$275 plus post, pretty cheap for Aussieland

They appear to be copies of (or may even be) Sanderson Headers...

This has probably been answered before, but while i'm here,


Will the TBird headers fit the full size Fords, specifically 1955,56 ?
