I was looking on ebay and found headers for $185 that are for the f350. I have a 2004 v10 on the f53 chassis. Does anyone know if they will fit my rv ?

koda, I can't answer your question other than to say I put Thorley headers on my F53/460 and they were specific to my model year and engine. I'm not sure, but truck chassis and motorhome chassis probably have differences that would make fittment a problem if not designed for.

I would ask the seller if they are for a v10 or v8 and the year of the engine they're for. Rather than getting something off e-bay I would do as Lt43 did and get a set of thorley headers specific to your engine, shouldn't be that much more.

Good luck

My 2 cents, If they are the famous ebay type headers, i think there are better alternatives.. some know issues in the Super Duty trucks are cracked tubes and notching frame to install.. Ask what type they are Gibson, Thorley, Headman ect..

There are good headers & there is junk headers . Good headers install, with minimal trouble & can provide years of trouble & leak free service . Junk headers, well , you get the idea.
