428CJ manifolds are our only choice.

The C8AE-H head was standard on 390 Mustangs in 1968-1969, but the exhausts were drilled for the Fairlane/Mustang engine bay.

An alternative is the 390 Fairlane/Mustang type of exhaust manifold, but these should only be used in stock "correct" 390 builds, as they flow rather poorly.

If you drill the 8 necessary holes in your C8 heads (no deeper than the factory holes!), you can match CJ manifolds to your heads.

FPA headers for a 390GT Mustang would be your best performance option - I mention this since dropping a 428 into a 1967 Mustang sounds like a performance move.

Hooker car headers will not port-match any C8AE-H heads.
