    I would try sanderson.com - they have a lot of header applications. Also, do a search on here for gt40p headers. I believe 37 ford has a thread running and there are pictures of a rod with some on it. You may be able to tell by pics if they will work. I'm going to be buying "P" headers soon for a 55 effie, but I'll have lots more room than you.

    Good Luck!
    I promise a two-way guarantee... if I break it you get both parts!

    Mustangs Plus in California should have a set that works.
    Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

    Sanderson FF-1 block huggers will probably work though you will need to make up a new head pipe. Tell them that the heads are GT40P as I think they have been further refined.

    sadly those ones wont fit the 66 mustang, the way the shock towers are designed on the car.... theres only 3 header designs that work and i dont know if anyone makes a gt40p option.... but the tri Ys work... the doug thorley and other similar models work designed for the car... and the 351 conversion ones work..... the 351 headers work best for clearance, specially on a 302/289.... but the other ones fit too, you will still have parts of the header tubes touching the shock towers, its just way too tight of a squeeze..... the two sources i would try for headers would be national parts depot and JBA.... JBA i think does make a set for gt40p heads, but their cheapest sets of headers run around $650
    just because your car is faster, doesn't mean i cant outdrive you... give me a curvy mountain road and i'll beat you any day
