    1972 Maverick, 302
    Hello fellow Maverick brothers. I recently picked up a '72 4-door Maverick with a 302, with 42k original miles. I got an edelbrock mdl 2121 intake manifold and holley 4-barrel, 600 cfm carb. to put on it sometime next week. I want to do headers next and I'm wondering what suggestions you might have or what brand won't fit or what is best to put on and any problems associated with installing headers or the intake/carb combo.

    :Welcome: Maverick601. I am running Hedman with HTC coating. You'll need a Power Steering bracket ([size=-2] 20120 [/size][size=-2]Power Steering Bracket (Ford)[/size] ). Looking forward to seeing pics.

    Howdy and :Welcome: . I know the Hooker 6901 is probably the easiest header I ever installed.
