Its refreshing to hear this point of view. Considering those headers cost so much money you'd think A) better customer service and B) better quality leaving the plant. I could see it if I had spent $150 on a set of Hookers or some BS but come on. I spent the cash because everyone and...

I did call Dougs when I first had the issue. They told me it was "very likely" that I had a bad set. Tech support asked I email them pictures, which I did, and to this day never got a response back. So maybe I took the hammer to those headers out of frustration to the idiots at...

Amazing indeed! Big thanks to Marland for helping me see this thru.. Hoping to get the motor cranked this week!

Sorry for the crappy pics, but here are the new set of Dougs installed with plenty of clearance :)

If anything positive should come out of this thread its to not take a hammer to your headers, be patient, and if at all possible, buy your stuff from Summit. They have outstanding customer service and will price match any part your looking to buy. I'm honestly still in shock that I got a...

Dartswinge, I sent the old headers back a couple weeks ago to Talmadge Ohio. The new set came from Georgia. The new headers were shaped much better and fit the contour of my engine on the drivers side. With the higher motor mounts there was plenty of clearance. My only issue was...

Ok never mind. Had to search around a bit: 67-76 "A"-body / 66-74 "B"-body / 70-74 "E"-body applications: From the center of the crankshaft to the top of the K-frame, the correct distance is 5-1/4”. The engine is also offset towards the passenger-side. Measure from the center of the...

I just went on the TTi home page but didn't see any instructions that had engine location settings. Is there a special site I need to check out? Thanks!

Also, I checked the orientation of how I had the mounts installed before. To my surprise the mount studs were on the bottom hole of the brackets. Just like Marland said they should be.

Got the new motor mounts today. Twice the beef. All I need now are my new set of headers..

Whats nuts is I got the same response from both Pertronix/Dougs and Summit. I suppose anything is possible but the issue I'm having sure seems odd. Thanks to you Marland, those taller motor mounts are already ordered!! On a side note, it took me 45 minutes to pull the headers back out...

After completely installing the headers on both sides I found there to be little room on the passenger side and there is a new clearance issue on the torsion bar (drivers side). I called Dougs and they said its possible the welding on the jig at the plant could of been off. Still they...

The header came back from ceramic coat today. Anxiously awaiting Sunday when I can install it. More pictures to come ..

Man I wish I had known about thicker isolators before I went hammertime. With as much adjustment as I tried before hand, I knew it had to be in the thickness of the mount itself.. ugh.. My only hope is after some steel work and re-coating the header, I won't notice the carnage as bad...

ugh

Crackedback, not sure if the brackets I have are B/E style? I'll attach a picture and maybe you can tell me? I'll also attach a picture of the engine, top view, the clearance on the pass side seems to be around 3", I can double check on Friday when head back to work on the car. What I...

The ceramic coat shop I found is here in Orlando. They are called Performance Koat. $220 for both headers or $120 for one. Here's the link to their shop - http://performancekote.com/

Ouch is an understatement! Luckily the area affected is hidden by the PS but STILL... My only hope now is it comes back looking better from the ceramic coat shop.. at a price of course.. $110

I went back today and loosened up the motor mounts and tried shifting the motor around. This time around I used my engine hoist for support (much easier). However I still found there was simply no room around the PS. As much as I hated it, I marked off the section that was rubbing and...

Hi Doug, I just paid $594 off Summit. They are ceramic coated and come with the gaskets and flange bolts. Summit part#DOU-D453. I also had to buy the 90 degree oil adapter (EXPENSIVE). But at least they matched Mancini's price of $159.. Only other thing I bought was a starter off...

StrokerScamp I didn't realize I could get movement at the motor bracket side of the mount. Honestly I'd rather not have to ping these babies if I don't have to!

I actually had them in wrong when I initially installed the drivetrain. How I found out was my transmount was off by 2". Once I got the motor mounts right everything lined right up. On the header install I've loosened both motor mounts and have tried shifting the motor left to...

Anyone out there have experience installing Dougs on a 72-73 A body? I am building a 73 Dart but used my K-member, engine and drive-train out of my 72. Right around the power steering is where I'm having a "snag". Please note this is my first set of headers.. ever. Thanks!
