Some performance cams are designed for headers and wouldn't do so well with manifolds some would. If you can post more info on your cam, you may get more info. TTI makes nice headers. I've got a 1 7/8" set on a 400 based stroker. They fit as advertised and are durable.

I have read that you have to break in your cam with another pair of headers or manifolds before installing the TTI's in order for the ceramic coating not to be damaged.

I used to run Hedman 1-3/4 headers on my old 440 and they were a nice header. After 5 years they showed a little bit of rust. The Hedman is a good header and will work fine but the TTI is the best header. Ron Last edited by 383man; 10/17/11 02:04 AM.

I think they are they same as hedmans. I strip them then hit them w/ VHT paint and they are fine. They also have a set of coated headers for around $200+ Another good thing is you can use all of your ex mani studs...not header bolts needed.

The Summit ceramic coated headers 1 7/8"(Patriot headers) would work and be cheaper than the elites. They are supposed to fit low deck motors the best. The Patriot uncoated headers would be cheaper yet. I picked up some tti 2" headers that were never used on craigslist two days ago for $200. There are deals out there, you just have to look or wait for them.

Nope just making a suggestion... If he wants to drop $600 on a set of headers that's fine. ANd they DO work w/ P.S. as you can see here. Enjoy 6873824-5183594-4402.jpg (116 downloads)

I got the ones ceramic coated inside and out. Well the coating has not weathered very well at all but then the car sits outside all year long. Anyway they are well made and worth every cent. I always buy the best i can get as the less hassels the better. They have never leaked and i am still using the same gaskets too!

Not sure why the bare ones are not cheaper than $671? They are $841 with the ceramic coating, and $870 polished? Man that adds up quick... The initial cost is steep, but everyone I know that is running them have no complaints. I'm running old Hooker 2" supercomp headers that don't fit well (low deck with Victor heads), are rusty, and have exhaust leaks. When I get the money, I'm changing to the TTI's they make a header specific for low deck bigblocks with raised exhaust port heads.

I was amazed when I put the TTIs on my Belvedere. They slipped right in with no fuss, no hitting anything. I think it took me less than an hour to install both sides. Best header experience I ever had.
