it would work fine on my indy heads.
Big block? Stock-chassied big blocks I think would not be able to use these, but front chassis and rails with header tubes going out and over the frame rails, or room between the header tubes.

It would be a nice upgrade, plus you could lose the distributor hold-down. Sweet-looking engine bay. What a showcar...LOL kiddding.. Very nice. Whose headers are those? Don't think I've seen a 1 and 5 tube get directed like that.. Nice. We can also switch you to one of our black distributor cap's if you like..Get rid of all of that red up there.. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif)
they are TTI's, wish I could afford it. sponsorhips welcome ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/biggrin.gif)

Those look great. Are those the ones you were making last night? ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/1343795-scratchchin.gif)
I wonder how they would fit on the 72. We have a different set of headers ready to go on but they are pretty much the same as these.

We've had a hell of a time keeping the # 5 & 7 wires off the tube and had to borrow one wire from Scott to finish out the season even though we had the heat sleeves over them.
Your right about a BB car. I don't see any way those would clear on mine.

Billy, they would fit perfect in there. No, I was making a set for an ADRL Pro Stock BAE Hemi. Thanks for swinging by. Get it set up?

Yep, so easy even I could do it. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbs.gif)
No bands to adjust or snap rings to fail. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif)
I'll have to get with you after I get the new headers on for next year and get me some of those. We need new wires for it anyway. ![](/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smoke.gif)
Probably be around the start of nest season.

Rick, 4 years with your original 8mm's on the Dart. Time for some new 8.5's and these boots. I have a "soft-orange" tie that matches those boots.. haha
I mostly enjoy golfing in the 70's.. The eighties are just too hot, and 60's I usually get chilly !!

The light orange is the highest heat range out there, in a silicone boot, anyway. This is why our 440 boots are closely the same color. Very high heat for the crazy-close header applications. Black is the lowest heat range. I understand your opinion, and wish the colors didn't effect the heat ranges.
what do you get for a 440 set? i have a 440 with hooker super comp 2-1/8" b-body headers, edelbrock heads with angle plugs. like you said "crazy-close header application"
