Default Will classic roadsters headers/sidepipes fit a lonestar?

I know this question is a long shot but someone offered me their headers from a classic roadster but I dont know if they would fit my lonestar project. If they do I guess maybe I would have to get the classic side pipes too inorder to complete it.

I didn't know if the headers were all similar and made by some subcontractor to the industry.

Thanks
Sean

Ask this question on the Classic Roadsters part of this forum. Don Scott may know.

I would doubt it, But, if they're free, you can try this... install the headers, then relocate your engine so the headers stick out the right location, (centered between your firewall and fender). Move your engine around with a floor jack or something for testing. Ideally, all Cobras need their engines as far back as possible for overall balance. If everything checks out, you'll have to fab up some new motor mounts,(no big deal). If dosn't work, you have two options left: 1) purchase the headers from Lonestar, or 2) have a custom set made up on your car. Been there and done all of that!
