It would be nice I could say yes and I have them on my truck but unfortunately headers for the 4.2 do not exist yet. It seems like all the aftermarket performance companies are taking their sweet time about developing products for the 4.2.I think they don't realize how big of a market they are missing out on. oh well.

The answer is NO and YES. For the 4.2L specifally there is not a set of legit headers, BUT the 4.2L sister engine the mustang 3.8L does have a set of headers! The only problem is that the 3.8L headers do not have the O2 sensor hole in the passenger side header(bummer ain't it?). Although in the near future I want to buy a set and have them modified by welding an O2 bunge into the header. When I do I will try to keep you posted.

Also road.rage I notice you have most of the same performance mods I have. I was wanting to know how it runs with the 4.10's?

What I did is the spacer is for a 99-2000 mustang 3.8L, and the throttle body and M.A.F. I have a friend who works for a local speed shop he did the machine work on them. I looked forever for legit parts and could not find any so I had to get inventive. Hopefully my intake manifold is next on the machining deck. Last the fan..nothing special about it I just followed the directions. The only thing is it is not connected to the A.C. clutch, for some reason I kept blowin my fuses so I have it on constant run to turn on&off with the ignition.

 

F150freak
did you get any noticable gains from these mods.

The throttle body and M.A.F I picked up some lowend power but on the fan I could not feel any diffrence at all. When I did the porting and polishing it cost me about $150.00 ($75.00 each) It should of cost more but my friend gave me a slight discount.

 

JBA says that the 4.2L headers will be available soon. www.jbaracing.com

 

Roadrage,
Do you have any digital pics or a scanner?

If so You can check under several threads that give directions, or Email some to me and I'll see what I can do ( I want them for me anyway)
