U maybe should check as some of the boat engines were reverse rotation and had an extended crank. Kin
How much does the snout of the crank extend? Thanks for the info.U maybe should check as some of the boat engines were reverse rotation and had an extended crank. Kin
Thanks I put a 440 source billet flywheel on and a McCloud clutch kit from Summit. Then bolted up a833 so do far all good.It’s the rear of the crank. Not sure. Kim
By far that is easy and won't mind doing them. They are very accessible but plug wires are a hassle on n off.Have fun changin g plugs Mine has edelbrock heads My car 71 demon
Seems as though these are the same as the 78030 uncoated only difference is the coating I think?I see no way those will work in an A body. I hope I am wrong.
I am right. Those are only for the B and E body. They will not fit your Dart.
Here is the detail page from Hedman. Scroll to the bottom where it says "VEHICLE APPLICATIONS" and you will see all they fit are B and E bodies. They are not an A body header.

So after all this time I stand corrected and the other gent was right. I wasted a lot of time putting them in and marking them then remove them and massage them with a soft faced mallet. The engine never sat right passenger side header was on fender well just wasn't working out. Finally broke down and ordered TTI RB 440 headers. Been fighting the wrong part for so long and getting really good at R&R ing these pita headers that when I had the right part and was installing them they fit so good almost fell out the bottom haha wasn't expecting it to go this easy. So if I can save some hard headed guy grief and lost time listen to these guys they have a lot of experience between all of them. They look good and sound great happy I bought the TTI headers just wish they were priced for the working man.Well good! I am glad you got them to work. I'm sure these guys would love some shots of the dents so that might help them as well.......if you can get some.
Yes your wrong and yes it was and is a *****. They're installed but with everything on this Dart RB nothing is easy. Im using a soft faced mallet and using a sharpie have shaped the tubes on drivers side to give a RCH on my manual steering gear and torsion bar also the inside for tail end of starter housing. My passenger side is hitting 2 runners on torsion bar but it sits in there but tighter than I thought. There was no returning as you gotta start somewhere. My issue at this point is pass side tubes not allowing engine to sit up off fender well. To get these in I removed string column and moved manual master cylinder off to the side. Also had a not so good pick using engine hoist and tilting engine. Northern California is smoking hot now so swimming more wrenching less. Heres some pics so it's real if it's in pics right haha.

I heard someone say once, "When you stuff a motor in a car that it was never designed for, you know who makes headers for it? You do!"
now that is a horse of a diff color on mine !Have fun changin g plugs Mine has edelbrock heads My car 71 demon
Pro Parts are by far the easiest to install. they are partial fenderwell. They went in so easy i had to recheck it!View attachment 1715368871 View attachment 1715368872
Drilled this access hole for #6 plug made life easy. I actually routed the wire through the wheel well in a shielded tubewires aren't my problem no.6 plug sucks no room to even get hand in. THANKS
I put the motor in from the bottom, lifted it a touch and it put them in right there. Worked beautifully. Only thing I had to beat on was my 450$ oil pan.So for you guys using the TTIs are you bolting them to the motor and dropping it in? Or can you actually install them with the motor in place?
LOL. I totally agree that what I said could have been worded better. I meant something more like putting a 440 in a 51 Chevy. There are probably a lot of possible combos that will not have store bought header options.I hit the disagree button , my tti headers dont and havent hit anything, even w/ a 440 block and raised port heads , just gotta get the front end way up in the air to take off or install them , way up , and work the starter at the same time !
