351w swap exhaust question June 21, 2009, 09:56:18 AM What exhaust systems are you 351 swap guys running. I have a set of short headers on my 351 swap in a 87 tc. I would love to run long tube headers and 2.5 dual exhaust with an x pipe. I read on cool cats website that a mustang exhaust system will work. If this is true and you guys have tried it summit has a good deal on a 2.5 inch x pipe kit for mustangs. I would love to see some pics custom exhaust or store bought. Quote Selected
351w swap exhaust question Reply #1 – June 21, 2009, 12:56:15 PM All you need is 351 specific headers; the rest of your exhaust should be fine. I’m not running a 351 but did look into it. Quote Selected

351w swap exhaust question Reply #4 – June 25, 2009, 07:46:26 PM What size primaries are those? I'm quite limited with my 1 5/8" BBK shorties, but again, budget limited. I also still have to worry about getting more air in before more out.Good luck,Don Quote Selected
