Hi everybody,
I just got a 1967 Mercury Cougar, Base, with a 289 2bb. I am considering putting headers on it as right now it has standard exhaust manifold and is a single exhaust.
I am looking for suggestions on what Headers to go with?
Please keep in mind money IS an object to me, and I am not a complete idiot, with that said I am not a mechanic.
For a street driven 289 a mid length tri y is a good choice. IMO it is worth the extra for ceramic coating or stainless. On my exhaust I used a Summit universal H pipe into Flowmasters and Cougar specific tail pipes. I put headers on then had a local muffler shop install the rest of the system - worked out well. Lots of choices in manufacturers depending on budget.
