Hello everyone. this is my first post. I see a lot of activity regarding dougs headers for the 62-65 fairlanes. My question is in regard to this header (the 662) for cars with pwr steering. no help from dougs tech line. they only know the header was developed for non-pwr steering cars. As you all probably know, the typical ford with a ram cylinder requires a drop off bracket for header collector clearance for most headers. Has anyone installed this header on a power steering car and was the drop off bracket required?
I think it's ALWAYS required on Ford cars. My 64 had the drop years ago but not Dougs brand. Any Mustang that Ive' owned with p/s required it.
