Where Can i buy headers???

Well i finally figured out why i have a bad exhaust leak in the front and its from a cracked manifold i want to get a cheap set of heads for my truck idc if they rust or anything like that im tired of the stock manifolds i just want something cheap that i can put on and then take to an exhaust shop and get pipe bent up for true duals.


Links would be great for the heads



Thanks


Cam

FYI shopheaders is summit racing.

Avoid pace setter unless you do get a custom setup behind them. Their fit quality is lacking or so people post.

If you run true duals expect a loss in low end torque.

read the description

You are bidding on an OBX Racing Sports Stainless Steel Exhaust Manifold Header for the 97-03 Ford Ranger, Explorer, and Sport Trac 4.0L SOHC V6 with EGR (Part #N/A). Fits ALL 1997 to 2003 Ford Ranger 4.0L SOHC V6 with EGR models, 1997 to 2003 Ford Explorer 4.0L SOHC V6 with EGR models, and 1997 to 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac 4.0L SOHC V6 with EGR models. Brand new and still sealed in box. Includes all hardware necessary for the install. Don't settle for the cheaper headers on eBay which are known to crack over time due to cheap welding, thin flanges, and very thin wall thickness. Also comes with a lifetime warranty from manufacturer defects. Dyno proven to increase horsepower. Why pay more elsewhere when you can buy it now for $295!

FYI, my 99 has no EGR so that may be an issue you should look out for if you have EGR.

Headers are very specific for each gen. Keep in mind the frame changed in 98 along with suspension. So that may effect the fit on your truck.

Stick with headers that fit, unless you like wasting your personal time figuring out they dont.

I spent a weekend trying to fit mine on. I really would be pissed if the didn't line up with the cat back.
