a friend of mine is using an 8 BA flathead in a Model A and they're having clearance issues with Fenton headers
this car has a stock A frame
anybody have the same problem?
any solutions?
I havent seen it but I said I'd ask on here to see how anyone dealt with it
thanks

I was looking into headers for my Nephews Model A and all the ones that I looked into, stated that they would not fit Model A with a stock frame. Maybe someone can explain.

 

I used headers for a 49 - 51 Ford, they are a tight but clear everything. I bought a set of red's Headers and they didn't clear the F1 steering box. I had a 50 at the time and used the left header off it to test the fit and the right off the Red's set. The left 49 -51 header would work but liked where the Red's came out.

 

Im looking at headers and just found this thread. Speedways site says the frame rails and Fenton headers interfere. I was hoping someone would have figured out a solution.

 

I ended up using block huggers.

 

I bought the Fenton cast iron headers but ended up with a set from Red's that fit perfectly. Pricey but worth your time.
