TTI Exhaust on Early A's

when you dyno tuning?

After Carlisle for sure - I plan on getting the X pipe installed and driving it up there like that. From that point I just need time to schedule a day at the dyno and start wrenching again!

Dave, I'm confused. (that doesn't say much)

If the polylocs have the engine sitting 1/4 taller, shouldn't that help with the centerlink clearance with the pan? Or are you saying the higher position makes the header hit somewhere?

The starter fitment is disturbing. TTI says a stock starter will fit (I believe). You are saying the T-bars won't go into the sockets? is that because you can't "thread the needle" through the pipes?

I'm going to run coil overs on the 65, so I think the poly loc wont' be a problem for us.

If you need some metal, Ive got some pieces at the shop that you can use. If you need it welded up, I can do that for you next week. Let me know, give me a call on my cell.

Also: whatever parts you dont' use (polylocs or spitfires) let me know, OK? Mike

Basically the poly locs dont settle like the rubber ones do -- they are the same height not installed, but the poly ones dont give like rubber, thus making it taller

When it is taller the tubes hit the t-bars, basically cradling them from underneath making them unable to get into the LCA sockets.

they capture the bars on both sides
The attachment is TTI's prototype car ( stick ) but you can see how the bars are captured by the headers.
