The headers you see in the pictures are proto-types and have yet to be tested on the dyno. Some changes may still be made. 1 change will be another set with 1-5/8" primaries. The #8 tube will be lowered if possible to make more room for a brake booster. As to every possible application they might or might not fit only time will tell. We don't have a yard with every model Ford ever made with a Y-Block to test fit. Futhermore, add in the modifications that have been made with various brake boosters ect. and there is really no way of knowing. A 55 model was chosen because the engine compartment is tighter than the 57 and later models. Theroetically, if they fit a 55 they should fit later models, but until it is actually tried there is no way to know.

To those waiting on the passenger car headers. An extended illness in Jerry Jardine's family has prevented him from working on the headers. Hopefully everyone will be well soon and Jerry can get back to work. I'm certain he is ready to get back to work but for now his thoughts are elsewhere.

I’ll add that I did the dyno tests for two different sets of Y passenger car headers for Jerry and both sets are on the top for HP numbers for all the passenger car headers that were tested. Jerry even addressed those back tubes that are cracking at the flanges on other headers and looks like he had a fix for that. I recently sent back the prototype headers per Jerry’s request so that’s a good sign that header production is in the foreseeable near future.

Michael, pardon my ignorance but is a Business Sedan a Tudor without a back seat or are there other differences?
Thanks

Guys, not sure, but I think the Jardine headers thing collapsed due to unforseen circumstances .
