headers and coilovers ???
Can anyone tell me who has the best fitting headers for a 63 fairlane with a small block (331)and a 5 speed ? If I can get a good set I can fit the dummy block and figure out if I need a hyd. or cable or stock linkage for the clutch . I have just finished the band in the tubs and coilover/ladderbars,new floor pans. Also has anybody used a coilover on the front instead of coil springs?I would like to lower the front about 2 inches I am thinking the coilovers will help alot.Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I've had Eagle headers on 2 of my 63's and they fit good.I know a few guys that went with Hooker and they fit great even with the clutch linkage.I don't think the Eagle brand is around now.

good luck on the coilovers. I haven't seen any offered for the f'lane. best plan I can see is modding your uppers for a coilover and making a new upper spring plate. you will end up with a short shock though.

Hey thunder, I believe that RC motorsports also offers a coil over setup. How 'bout some pics of your modifications that you've made. I'm considering tubbing my '64.
