Get the headers, extensions and Brockman Mellow-Tone steel packed mufflers from Read's Headers... you'll be glad you did.

Not that it answers your question but I used Reds on my 1950 F1 and as stated above they fit perfect with no hammering.

If they look like this - they should fit.

They need that bend in the driver's side to wrap around the steering gearbox.

I bought mine from Red's 12 years ago and during 10 of those years it was a daily driver - the headers are still solid.

Speedway centre dump headers were a perfect fit for my 49 F1.
