Well Headers for 66-77 Bronco still fit in a 86 frame style?

depends on where the motor is mounted, and how wide the frame is. i would *assume* that fullsize frames would be a bit wider, and knowing that the shorty headers i run on my 5.0 dump DIRECTLY ontop of the frame of the eb, making it a bitch to route exhaust. cant be sure though

EDIT: maybe im just a dumbass, but were you talking about mounting on the motor??

Yeah just stright headers on a motor. Full size, not shortys.

chances are no........ just get the part # from the same mfg for the 86 and the bronco...... if part #s are diff chances are they are diff for a reason..... im guessing youll run into column issues or firewall clearance
