Title: TTI Headers for my 3rd gen swap
Post by: Swamp Donkey on August 16, 2020, 01:25:36 PM
I'm going to ordering a set of headers soon.  Who else is a supplier of headers for our e-bodies and the 3rd gen motors.  I tried a quick google search, but was intstantly infuriated by most websites.  I will make some calls during business hours if necessary.  TTI seems to have a good website and the right product.  But if there are other ideas I might investigate into them.

Want to make sure I get the right ones that will work with whatever steering system I go with.

Dougs might have them for the 3rd gen but I have never used anything but TTI

Make sure you order the ones for what ever side your starter is on. I got a "good" deal on a set of TTI's for my Challenger only to find they were for a driver's side starter. Had to find a different bell housing for my NAG1 off a Grand Cherokee. But, I think at the time, that's all they made(could still be that way, IDK).

Mopar belhousings such as 500/518 / 727 or 833 all use driver side starter

Make sure you order the set that will work for your steering gearbox. It bit me when I thought I would do a Borgeson box after I bought the headers.

I ordered mine from Modern Muscle Extreme when they had a sale last year around the holidays for free shipping.  They didn't list the ones I needed on their site, but when I called them they reached out to TTI directly and made it happen.  On a separate occasion, I ordered my Stefs pan through them as well.  Great company to deal with thus far.

TTI makes a set of headers to use with a borgeson box and one set with the stock box. Pick the right one!

TTI are great headers no question there.
But it goes much further, it's how they fit aside from how nice they are made. I used DynoMax at first, let me tell you low! 2 inches from the ground! I scrapped on everything, let alone the dreadful speed humps. TTI fit way up and real nice. Course cause of that make sure you put a good heat shield on your starter. All sorts of starting trouble with it! Never mind without it. Mine are rusted out now (fit and perform great) but look horrible. Even the slightest condensation droplets over time rust them up.They wouldn't re-plate them
For me. Now im thinking about wrapping them, to solve the look and heat issue with
