2 disagrees from you today...and I ignored them both
I never had trouble with fitment on my driver side as I just lower the motor onto the header..
.. (a lot more ground clearance LOL)
I'm not being a salesman. I don't care what type of header you or anyone runs. LOL. I was trying to share with the OP that Dougs and TTI's aren't about hp, but rather fitment and quality.I never had trouble with fitment on my driver side as I just lower the motor onto the header..
I've never had any trouble with my 5 or 7 plugs or wires...
I've had no trouble start changing my starter whatsoever. Although also I only changed it once since I've owned the car..
For some people one inch is a lot..lol...
just how long are you expecting these to live? The thicker flanges they make them heavier and lose a tenth at the track LOL..
I use remflex gaskets and never have had any leaks ever...
I agree, this is why I bought my dougs uncoated and just paint them,easy to touch up if needed and not break the bank.
I did TTI here are some pictures and fitment was not any better than some others. Just at different places. But they were large tube and 3 inch pipes so that could have been the issue. If I do headers they have to be race headers unless they are free or real cheap. I mean bare and just paint with Barbi-Q paint. Here is the Demon we did . I believe the total cost was $1600 for the headers and pipes. Way to much for my pocket and they still hit the steering shaft. and dented in at a couple areas. Without steel mounts at an idle they sounded like The last MRI that I had at the Hospital.
Without doubt, the large tube header would pose a more difficult scenario. If you looked at the fitment of the Doug header on my car in that video above (post 101), it's amazingly clear of everything, but, a 1 5/8 headers
Do they fit around the /6 to V8 motor mount conversion.
I would think, regardless if you have the '72 & down K frame or '73 and up. I might find out if I try to install a set on my '74, obviously the spool k frame. It was a /6 now small block
I posted above, mine don't have bigger tubes. 1 5/8, same as yours. TTI makes a great product. I used their head pipes on both my Dusters with the factory manifolds. Several header companies offer bigger tube headers if that's what somebody needs.
I have to agree if you are doing a complete exhaust. the 3 inch pipes fit like a glove. The race headers were tight compared to the hookers but I didn't have to cut a hole in the fender wells. For the street TTI's . For the track shop built or Hooker race headers if you can find them. We are building stainless for the new Duster using stainless copying the 2 inch hookers but they will be 2 1/8 inch. My theory is you can't take in what you can't let out. The rule of the scavenger effect goes out the door with power adders. Boost or nitrous. These by far were the best headers I ever used or installed. Just my opinion
Depending on the build details, the TTI may provide better low and mid range torque because the step up in the primaries may provide some anti-reversion.
