What's out there for a long tube under car header. Needs to be able to hold 500-600 hp. 73 duster, power steering. Money is no issue.
Hooker has an engine swap section for 383-440 in a bodies simple black powder coated 1 7/8 pn 5205hkr 2 1/8 pn 5215hkr
The Schumacher won't have the flow. Looking at going the custom route. The hookers are fenderwell headers. Not cutting my car apart after I just got done patching it there.

Bulls**t. Do you have a flow bench to prove it? Pipes only flow as much as their narrowest point, which happens to be the same spot on all of them; the flange, and the 90* bend there-after.
PS: What the hell do you need 600HP on the street for? Where are you going to responsibly let that loose? C'mon man, be realistic.
Keep it neat on the street, fast on the track.

Sorry if I offended you, but I've seen similar builds to mine on the dyno with and without Schumachers. There is a difference when you start making more power.
PS: I guess I'll have to upgrade my rear view mirror now knowing you don't put down that kinda power on the street. Lol

I'm kind of surprised at how willing a lot of people are to get rid of the power steering on a street cars in order to fit parts like headers for performance gains. I've never driven an A body, let alone a big block A body with out power steering but I had a GTO with a big block Chevy and a Firebird with a Pontiac 350, both with manual steering and both were a real pain to drive in the pits at the track or parking lots or any slow speed maneuvering. For me PS is a must have on a street car, its makes the car much more enjoyable and it adds points or creed to build a car that runs hard without resorting to removing amenities to get there. To each his own. My advice is to keep the PS, you won't regret it.Well you for got to add some info about your car. Like what engine RB or B and what head?
do you have any pics of your car? i have a 73 duster i am slowing building up. first if it was me i would just install Manuel steering, would make it a lot easier to get a set of headers to fit. Unless you just want to keep your power steering. I had the 2 inch TTI headers in my 1973 dodge dart with a 440 and Indy EZ heads and the tti worked great, i didn't have to heat or dent any tubes to make them fit. I did have to drill a hole in the inner fender to make getting at number 6 spark plug easier to get to and had to remove the pit-man arm grease zerk. iIt seems like i lot of people dont know but another company makes a under chassis header for a big block abody and they are known as Mad Dog headers.
