My understanding is that the original idea behind the crossover exhausts for the 289/302 was to create a vortex in the collectors to assist in scavenging exhaust gases out of the headers. The 351W has a different firing order to the 289/302 so, if the 351 headers are built the same as for a 302 the vortex would actually be in the reverse direction (i.e. clockwise rather then counter-clockwise). To my mind this should make no difference, but, as there are a number of people out there running 351's does anyone have any thoughts on this? Did anyone build their 351 headers differently to reproduce the original counter-clockwise vortex? Just interested as I am building a 351 for my car.
