I just bought a set a couple of weeks ago. They fit a B engine A body perfectly- I wasted my $$ trying to make B engine headers work. The nickle chrome ones look nice and save about $200. I'm not worried about blueing- two reasons, 1- it's been dyno'd so the tune should be pretty close and 2- I like the bluing look. As far as the cost, they are well built and if there was that much margin someone else would be knocking them off. I've learned my lesson no more cheap headers. What tube size ones did you buy?

ROAD TRIP!!! Go visit the magic kingdom and go a bit further south to Corona. It's not a bad drive once you get out of Anaheim.
I’m listening.

I've used both Dougs and TTI and documented the difference. These are 440 with 2" pipes - TTI Dougs TTI Dougs TTI dings the tube for plug clearance, Dougs does not, but it's a tight fit without the ding

My old CPPAs were one of the first sets they made.They are crusty now but still solid.My 6 cyl is a royal pain to change in my 65 440 B body.4 isnt real easy either.I run 2 inch tubes think smaller would be easier.Rocky

The full length 1-3/4". They are a little small, but I have a stock stroke 400 and it's a street car with a full exhaust (Pypes 2-1/2" X pipe). I looked online and found calculators that recommended anything from 1-5/8" to 2-3/8" for the primary tubes. If I have a 500" motor I'd want bigger but since Andy F made 550 Hp with a 470 and cast manifolds, I don't think I'm giving up much.

I would recommend the TTI's, I bought them from Rob's Rod Shop. I got 10% off for the Carlisle Chrysler Show. They shipped directly from TTI. I went with the 1 7/8 in my 69 RR. They fit great but I wasn't to happy with the polish ceramic coating. That burned off on some tubes after a couple hours. I don't think the coating is that great. I also used studs on them.
