My friend Ron Johnson bought the 2.125" TTI Stepped headers for the 500" LB that we put in his '72 Cuda' last month. We had to use those because of the Indy raised port heads. This was another major leap forward for Ron. He had a tired 383 in the car before and it had some no name headers. The best ETs he had been able to run before were 13.5s.

The engine had been built by a local guy and was offered to him at a swap meet. I saw the engine with the pan off, steel crank, aluminum rods, gear drive, roller cam and aluminum roller rockers. It runs on pump gas and we have not taken it to the track yet(it rains in Washington a lot). He bought a CE roll bar kit and we have a welder lined up to install it (one of my neighbors) We will make a pass or two and when he gets tossed out, he will park it for the roll bar and then try again. He drove it home from my shop to his home in Tacoma and then had mufflers made up. It is not a street car anymore

He has a Magnum Force front motor plate and no T-Bars, 4 link in the rear and Wilwood brakes. I have offered him my Dana 60-2 in place of his 8.75" because we know that won't last.
