Well I decided maybe I should start and new thread since its been awhile. Anyone know if there is a differance with the 79-93 mustang headers and the 94-95 ones? If so what would it be? Another question if I had a 351 windsor in my mustang (fox body) would the long tube headers for a 302 fit?

Im just curious

hello

so come on people. Answer my question. Would it help if I said I was naked. Big breasts.

Im actually a guy. Big one too. Im bored.

Since you're a guy, no it would not help if you were naked. Just thought I should clear that up.

That said, where's Grape Ape when you need him?! He'd know the answer to your question... Sorry I can't be of assistance....

I think the 94-5 headers are different than the 79-93 but not positive.

the 351W is taller and wider so 302 longtubes allthough the head flange is the same will not clear

Thats what I figured. oh yea Im pist right now. I screwed up my rearend. I have a 86 capri and I sold my 8.8 to my dad about 6 months ago. He gave me his 7.5. Well after 1 month I killed that 7.5 rearend. So went to the wrecking yard and all I could find was a 7.5. No 8.8 so I grabbed one. I put it in 4 months ago and I just killed this one. Luckly I went to the junk yard yesterday and grabbed me a 8.8. Hell yea

You should look for the fabled turbocoupe 8.8

The 94 body style was the first year for the SN-95 chassis. That being said, the engine is mounted differently. Same mount points on the block, different location in the engine bay. Also the steering column is different so are the crossmembers. The Fox-chassied cars' headers interfere with the SN-95 chassied parts. Also, the 302 was only available in 94-95 Mustangs. 96 was the first year for the mod-motors and DOHC 4.6L in the Cobra.

The T/C rear is only better if you get the brakes with it. Then you have to make other changes though, if you want it "right," because the brake lines are different too. Of course, the setup between the 7.5 and 8.8 is different anyway, so changes are comin' regardless.

The questions were already anwsered so I thought I'd add that.

94-95 5.0L mustang headers will work on a 93-back 5.0L if you cap off the smog tube that is incorporated into the pass side header (for EGR). I know this as I bought a set 'cheap' many, many years ago for my 93 and they bolted right up and take the same H-pipe. The only "modification" to the headers, which were BBK shorties, was finding a cap for the smog tube that would otherwise be connected to the EGR valve on a 94-95. The 93-back headers will not work on the 94-95 5.0L's unless the EGR valve is disconnected.

Not true...

Yes, true. Shorty headers are about the only exception and even then, you still have to modify them like you said. Beyond that, not all the shorty headers will fit. The equal lenth shorty headers will be in the way of the steering linkage on the SN-95. The only shorties I have seen with no issues aside from teh EGR hole are the block huggers. Try strapping long tubes into your SN-95 and they will not fit. There is too much other stuff in the way and IIRC, the collectors want to occupy the same space as the floor boards and clutch linkage on a manual trans. I have seen it with my own two eyes. I watched a monkey try and put the long tubes from his 93 Cobra into a 95 GT and decided it would be best to just bend them into place. He sheered off 12 of 16 header bolts.
