1952-59 Ford 429 in a 52

Hi Guys, I'm in the process of putting a 429 in my 52 Customline fourdoor. Its a tight fit and I am told that the factor SCJ exhaust manifolds won't fit. However I can't find any block hugger headers that drop in the center either. Specicially I am trying to route it between the oil filter and the steering linkage. Any ideas???

I also need a good resource for a radiator that will fit and still keep this thing cool.

Thanks in advance.

 

Contact Arizona Muscle Mart get this Scott Drake part number:259-4C this is 4 core radiator for '64-66 Mustang V-8's with the lower hose on the drivers side like your 429.This early Mustang radiator is almost a bolt in in a 52-56 very minimal fabbing required and it is USA Made.Phone is 1(602) 233-0616 or email at sales@azmusclemart.com

 

Thanks JeffB2

 

There is a set of 460 headers in the cl***ifieds for an early Galaxie, they may fit with some modification.
