Coyote Swap Headers | 1988-96 OBS Ford Truck and Broncos

Stainless. Built to order. TIG welded one at a time. An OBS truck with a Coyote in it is the best version of that truck; and headers are where the swap either comes together or turns into three weekends with a die grinder. There is no room to spare between a Coyote head; a stock frame rail and a factory steering box. These are built for that gap. 1-3/4 inch primary tubes into a 2.5 inch or 3.0 inch V-band collector; fully TIG welded stainless; routed to clear the components in an 1988-96 engine bay and to work with the factory steering box you are keeping. Pick your drivetrain; your Coyote generation and your collector size. 2WD or 4WD. Gen 1-3 or Gen 4/4X. Every combination is a different part; and every one is welded to order over about four weeks. Raw finish. All bolts and gaskets included. Sold as a pair. Read the fitment notes before you order. They will not fit a Crown Vic front end or a QA1 kit; and the passenger side may want a rubber mallet and some patience at the firewall.

  • Made for the stock frame - routed to clear an 1988-96 engine bay with the factory steering box still in it.
  • Fully TIG welded stainless - handcrafted at FFG rather than a production mandrel bend set.
  • 1-3/4 inch primaries into a V-band - 2.5 inch or 3.0 inch collector so the exhaust behind it is your call.
  • Built for your Coyote - separate parts for Gen 1-3 and Gen 4/4X; the exhaust ports are not the same.
  • 2WD and 4WD - the 4WD version accounts for the front differential and axle you are keeping.
  • Bolts and gaskets included - the hardware is in the crate; not on a second order.
