My buddy has a 74 Duster with a 360 with 340 heads, it has power steering and power brakes. The headers he has now give zero ground clearance. What's the best solution for decent money ??

You have two choices, Doug's D453 and TTI. Doug's are cheaper, TTI are step Headers. I guess you can also do Hooker super comps too. I have Doug's on my 1974 Duster 360 and they fit great. I have PS and PB with auto trans.

Dougs from autozone with the 20% discount code they run almost every month. Can't beat the price.

They are over chassis and dont trap the suspensioñ like the cheap ones. Let me put it this way, my exhaust is now higher up then my transmission pan!

The price of the pan was right and it is pretty well made. My stock pan was in tough shape, so I figured a little more fluid could only help. Also figured the aluminum would dissipate heat a little quicker than steel which could only help here in the desert

Thanks Mr P. I figured out a way, but nearly as simple. Learn something new everyday!

I vote for TTI. Outside as well as inside coating options. The 1 5/8"-1 3/4" step could help HP and torque #'s a bit over the straight 1 5/8", especially when hopping the engine up. They work great on my race car too running mid-low 11's (with TTI X-pipe & Dynomaxmufflers). Easiest to install and best fitting chassis headers I ever had.

Lose the power steering. Then order a set of 5204 Hookers.


Just because you think it won't make it true. Horsepower is KING. To dispute this is stupid. C. Alston

Loved the TTI's I had on my car. Install from the bottom as directed, and they are a breeze, with great ground clearance.
