    The mounts you have pictured look like ‘73 Mustang mounts, I’ve never seen that mount used to mount a small block in a ‘55 or ‘56 Ford.

    I used the ones Jeff suggested in a post ,
    , it does look like his motor may sit up a little more then mine .

    This is a copycat header of the Patriot H8433 on a 302 sold on Ebay and it is stainless steel https://www.ebay.com/itm/325704465751? A lot lower price than the HEDMAN and has larger primary tubes of 1 5/8" HEDMAN's are1 1/2" and better clearance at the steering box. Next is on p*** side. 52-54 header .JPG 52-54 header pass..JPG

    They look great . The one on drivers side with the one tube going up and over may be the key on that side . They p***engers side I can’t tell. Can’t beat the price so why not try them .
