Thanks for the info, I missed that one had a wedding. Were you at Wildcountry Sunday, There was a nice 68 barracuda there. I had the yellow convertible challenger. I am realy thinking about going with manifols but HP s are like gold I found a set on ebay $380. I think the TTI headers or $ $600. What is a good source for TTI or Dougs

Your welcome. No I didn't make it down Sunday. I'm 45 miles n.e. of you so I only make 1 or 2 a month. Got my car apart right now installing a new engine. Hopefully I'll have it back together by next weekend for our yearly river road ride. I know what you mean about stock manifolds. I wish I had went that route or the tight tubes Jerry mentioned. $380 is actually pretty cheap for a set of HP manifolds. I've seen them go as high as $750. Since I can't afford TTI's or Doug's I haven't shopped for them in a while but summit sells Doug's. JEGS sells TTI's.

Is it worth the $ for the ceramic coated, thermal barriar etc.?

If it's done right it's a great addition, especially if you like your headers to look nice. I would think TTI's and Doug's are both done right, unlike some of the cheaper headers that burn it off nearly as fast as regular paint. It's my understanding that when their coated on the inside it's a really big advantage as it holds heat in making them more efficient and keeps corrosion down to a minimum.
