I have no experience with that combination, but TTI seems to have the best reputation for fit. That is providing you follow their installation instructions to the letter.

Good Luck!

Get the stock hp exhaust and run it all the way back. Zero heat problems, zero clearance problems. Stress free living.

I've never found any headers that fit perfectly but I can't say I've tried every single one on the market either. My suggestion is to use the smallest header size since that increases the odds of it working. A stock big block doesn't need much more than a 1 3/4 header so that should free up some space. Maybe look at the Schumacher tri-y header since they don't take up a ton of space. Good luck.

schumacher, in many past years, has had a display engine at carlisle with those headers installed. if the OP is going, or knows someone that is, you might consider taking a couple of pics of this setup.

In my 68 satellite with RB motor I’ve run 1-3/4 Eagle(from the 80’s), and Hooker 2” super comp.
I had some SR heads on a RB motor in the car, and installed the TTi 2-2 1/8” step headers for the Indy heads. They were the easiest of the 3 to install.

On my 383 B engine I ran Hooker Competition headers , which are 1-7/8”.

In my car, the Eagles and Hooker Comps were actually harder to get into the car than the big headers, but once installed I felt all four sets fit pretty well.

If you have angle plug heads, the TTi’s generally have the best plug clearance.

i have 2" tti headers and a full 3" tti exhaust in my 65 coronet. fit is perfect! 1 3/4" tti's would be very easy and their 1 3/4" shorties are probably easier. I have tti full exhaust with cast manifolds in my 69 coronet r/t, perfect fit.

I have the same Hooker headers on my 1966 Dodge Coronet Deluxe two door sedan with a stock iron headed (452 heads) 440 motor and those headers fit well and weren't hard to install with the new motor, it was a slant six three speed stick car before so I swapped the K member out to a 1968 B Body V8 K member into it also up

TTI headers fit, and they always did. Here is another factor seldom mentioned, their quality is way above everybody else. They will last.


One other factor, they sponsor a number of Nostalgia Super Stock races and groups including Victory Nostalgia Super Stocks. Is there any other header maker sponsoring anybody?

I have 1 7/8 TTI in my 69 GTX with RB engine and they fit nice. I installed them with the car on jack stands in my garage without any issues. Stock type steering box but mini starter.

Doug's D452 2" primary. Fit great easy install on my 68 B body w/440 with edelbrock heads. Schumachers are 1 5/8" primary. I have them on my 67 Dart w/440 and they fit real easy.

But still easier to work around when necessary.

I have a set of Schumacher Tri-Y's on my 65 Sport Fury Big Block and love them. Excellent quality, easy install (from the top), no leaks and the coating is holding up great after 8 years. I will be buying another set. Also had good luck with TTI

TTI have been the best fitting and working headers I have ever used. They have good plug clearance even with my angle plug EZ heads and IMO are much easier to change the plugs then it would be with exh manifolds. Ron
