I'm glad you brought this point up. I have a friend with an extra set of TTI 2.25" headers (#214s) for my 70 540" Hemi powered E body, but I'd like to run Hotchkis Torsion Bars and either a Firm-Feel or Borgeson steering box. I'm wondering if the 2.25's will work, or will I need to go with the TTI 2.125" versions... Anyone know or have experience with this? K Member is stock.


Aren't those steering boxes smaller that the original power boxes? And the 'bars shouldn't matter. My block is a World iron and the 2 1/4 tubes are all over the stock power box. I slotted the box mounting holes so I could move the box over just a bit and dimpled the tube that was right up against the box. I also slid a piece of insolation between the tube and the box trying to reduce the heat in the box. Engine location is critical. My K is by Al Debevic.

Master, again and still
