Default 351C 2v headers

ok maybe I should ask another way. does anyone have a 1973 351c 2v with power steering, ac, power brakes, FMX auto trans. with Headers? if so what brand Headers are they and part number if possible. everywhere I look the headers that are for 351 2v with power steering will only fit C4 trans. I cant find any anywhere. HELP!
thanks
Johnny

I didn't think any 351s came with a C4 from the factory. Maybe the app guide has it wrong?
Good luck.

yes funny i went to Hooker header website and they claim there headers wounldnt fit power steering so i called them and they said they would. looked at summit racing they say they wont fit but jegs says they will. how confusing. also Hooker doesnt have ifo on FMX tranny. UGH!

IIRC, there is relocation bracket for the power steering that allows fitment, but that was for pre 1971 cars. Not sure about yours. Did you try other forums since nobody here seems to share your situation?

The good news: I have no problem with Hooker headers on my '73 351c 2V P/S A/C, P/B and an FMX or AOD.
The bad news: the car has been off the road 20yrs so I can't say if its still the same header they are selling. My guess is yes and but the fitment knowledge has been forgotten. I might be able to find the p/n but no promises.
