Engine swap
 
Thinking of swapping out 302 with 340 hp to 351 w stroker ? Will I be able to use the same headers or do I need to get new ones

Probably not. Since the 351 is wider and taller, that will push your pipes up and out. You will need different headers to keep the pipes in the same place.

You will use the same headers. You just will make adjustments in the mounting height of the motor and may have to trim the sidepipe opening differently depending on the build era of your BDR.
