Tags: Tech, 1933 Ford 1/2 Ton Pickup, Headers and Exhaust, Street, V8

In this Tech Tip, one of our customers asks for a suggestion on exhaust headers for his 1933 pickup.

“Hi, can you tell me what headers you would suggest to fit my 1933 Ford pickup? It has a 1942 Flathead V8 with stock steering and frame. ”

Hi, you inquired about what headers we would suggest for your 1933 pickup with a Flathead V8. The most commonly used are part number 91013605. If you wanted an actual tube header then part number 91013601 can be used but you will need to split the wishbone if you haven’t already. Feel free to visit us on the web at www.speedwaymotors.com or call 1-800-979-0122 with questions or to place an order.
