60 thunderturd manifold help.

So iam swappin out my dismantled 352 for a 390.
now for my question.
is there gunan be any difference in clearence with the 390 compared to the 352 relating to the exhaust manifolds?
Its already a tight squeeze in there because of the steering box.
Thanks buddies.
of and the car is a 1960 thunderbird. fyi.

 

Same block...no difference......you'll be fine.....

 

tanks,
do you know of any shorty headers out there for Squarebirds?
Cause there iron manifolds are mighty restrictive.

 

Nope, but do you have plans for the exhaust manifolds and risers from the 352? A buddy has a 60 t-bird and the p***enger side manifold is cracked, and he needs another.

 

Might give these guys a call:

i've tried to use those FPA headers before, they say they are 'bolt on' but its not true, they need alot of tweaking and knocking round to make them fit. I lost my ****in mind doing it.

Lugnut, let me know how the swap goes, its the same swap i wanna do in my 63 Galaxie [ 352 ].
