Fenton brand headers fit the 235/261 L6s. Tom LANGDON produced a very similar cast iron header for the 230/250/292 L6s, called the Langdon Headers.
Right, there are no 292 Fenton headers, because they're called Langdons.

Well, that settles that. I like the fact that the Fenton's were set up for heat with a boss that is drilled and tapped. I have the Langston's, I'm wondering if these's enough metal there to drill and tap them for heat. It is so much easier with exhaust heat then it is to have to run plumbing around the engine and I believe that it looks better. As you can see in the pictures the ones on my 235 are tucked down in and out of the way.
