V8 Swap

So, I rebuilt my 1950 3100 and kept the 235 that was in it. Dual exhaust, dual carbs, offenhauser manifold, etc. While I like the "original style" I am really itching for more power.

I put in a T5 S10 tranny and a 8.8 ford rear. Heidts front crossmember and manual rack and pinion

I have decided to pull the 235 (will be for sale) and drop a 350 in there to increase the fun factor. I plan to use the original bell housing and bolt the new power plant to existing equipment.

I have the original steering column connected by double D to the rack and pinion.

I am trying to determine which headers are most accommodating for my plan.

Any recommendations appreciated
