whatca buildin Denny?
 
cant you just modify the z bar for the tri y to fit? i think the 1 3/4" tti need it modified too. i used those on my dart for many years with the auto, i pulled them off had them coated and now they are on my duster with the 400 6 speed and power steering. hydraulic clutch though. they fit, but super tight with the power steering.

Have you contacted Schumacher, I thought they had a modification for the Z bar so their headers could be used.
 
Would something like this work , they don't list a dart , but Cuda Challenger . Maybe someone here has tried them ?

anybody use the TTi...
1 3/4" tube....or any of the other sizes?????


HemiMark....I'm helpin' my buddy Floyd (ibleedmoparts) w/ his 400 cu in/4-speed/a-body build......
 
Jerry6...never tried em,....look like shorty's for a street rod app....and our A-bodies are just too narrow...I think...anybody try yet?
 
You're probably right , thought it they fit the challenger , might fit the Dart but the Dart probably as an inch or 2 less clearance .

I know Brother John was talking about a 400 in an a-body so I got a little excited thinking just maybe John was coming of the sidelines...... :read2:
 
if Bro John was building it...he wouldn't be askin' me...he would already be reading the dyno sheets

maybe I'd better call him.....
 
TTI's will not fit with a 400 and 4 speed.They will foul the z bar big time.You have to get rid of the z bar and use a hydraulic clutch.
