hello I m new to panteras, I just picked up a 73 and have been going through it mechanically. The car has 4V cleveland heads, but it appears the headers are for 2v Heads.
I see summit has several sets of 4v 351c headers fairly cheap. I just want to avoid any fitment issues when I swith the headers. I was just curious if anyone has purchaced 4v headers and would know what dimensions or part numer/ brand will fit.
Thanks

I have no specific knowledge in off the shelf header fitment. I went with Hall Big Bores for my first engine. However, I wouldn't even try it unless you can get someone to verify they fit a Pantera unless you have spare pipe and welding experience. I would suggest looking at the Pantera vendors offerings. Wilkinson has a very nice setup for the entire exhaust system. Personally I love the sound of 180 degree header systems. Good luck and welcome to the Pantera community.
You will not find off the shelf headers that will fit the Pantera except from the Pantera vendors. Instead of changing headers, you can install exhaust port plates from Holmstrom or MPG between the exhaust port and your existing headers. Find out more about the plates online by Google'ing 351c port plates.

Headers for the Pantera are specific for the car.
