I was gonna build a 440 at first but ive decided on a low deck. Will these headers work on a lowdeck engine with stock style heads? I dont mind a little modification but i dont want to destroy a really nice set of headers! Its a 69 dart,auto,manual stearing. Ive heard of people doing it but i want to be sure before i start cutting! Thanks guys "I aint here on buisness baby,Iam only here for fun"

Thanks guys I bought a set of Pro Parts to put on my 1969 Dart GTS 383 motor, they don't fit well at all, don't do it unless you can raise the low deck up and plan on using spacers between the heads and the header flanges to make them work Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964.

With the 440, they fit lke a charm. Pics are kinda crappy, but you can see that I didn't have to flatten it much. These were 2" tubes, so 1-7/8" might clear but every car is different. 5748717-DSCN3606.JPG (274 downloads)

Proparts are semi-fenderwell that come apart in sections and the TTI headers are one peice.-Tom

Had a 451 low deck w ported 452's in a 73 duster, fit was pretty good tight to the T-bar on the Pass side and the collectors got really close to the tranny pan and made it real tough to get to the detent shaft onthe trans....as i recall I wound up cutting a removable plate inthe floor just to get to the Trans detent shaft. Imy motor was put in with elephant ears and was set back pretty far (credit card tight to the firewall) your fitment may vary.
