TTI coated headers for a small block

In my experience, a call to TTI is worthless. I paid a lot of money for one of their exhaust kits in 2006, and when I bolted the headpipe to the stock 340 manifold, it hit the transmission. They claimed I wasn't using it in the correct body type, or I had th wrong manifold. The body type makes no difference if you bolt the headpipe to the manifold and it hits the transmission. It would do that if not installed in a car at all. And I also know what a 68-70 340 manifold looks like. They screwed up when making the pipe, and didn't feel like dealing with it. They claimed that their jig would not allow them to ever make an incorrect pipe, and I was lying to them.

I'm embarrassed to say that I'm working on a Mustang for my wife, and when I received a set of JBA headers from a vendor, it was missing the hardware and gaskets. The box had been opened before, and the vendor had probably stolen them out of the box. I called JBA for advice on what gaskets to use, and they told me that they would send me the hardware and gaskets free of charge. I didn't expect that, but it sure makes me want to do more business with them.

I sure as hell won't buy anything from TTI again. All I wanted was for them to replace the headpipe with one that fit the application that I had paid for. Calling me a liar isn't a good way to keep a customer. And the fact that I spread the word doesn't help them gain new customers, either.

I hear ya Tom, each time I have talked to someone there, I always get off the phone and say to myself. "I will never get that part of my life back."
Customer service is everything!

I bought my Harland Sharp rockers this last time, because of how well they treated me, the first time.
When I was racing, I had bought a set advertised in one of the mags, that turned out to be product that wasn't their approved design, and had not flowed through proper channels. I called them about them, and they replaced them, no questions asked. I have never even considered someone else's product since then, 20 years later, they got another sale because of the great customer service.

I still have a set of those TTI head pipes that mate to the 340 Hp manifolds, if you want them. I just couldn't throw them away when I went to headers, as they were in fairly decent shape and definately fit.

Pay the shipping and they are yours.
