I'm running a Mopar Performance intake that came off of one of the early crate engines, I got it from Indy Cylinder Heads. Back when I did the swap the only carb intakes available were the Mopar Performance intake and XV Motorsports was marketing one. I sent $600 to XV for an intake and they...

I've been running TTI ceramic coated headers on my 5.7 for about 13 years now. They still look great and absolutely no rusting.

You must be related to Tim 'the toolman' Taylor, the guy who put a Harley Sportster engine in his wife's dishwasher!:rofl:

:lol::thumbsup: YUP!!!

I cruise my car around town, drive it in parades, and drive it to car shows within a two hour drive of where I live. Any further, I'll trailer it and I have no intentions of doing the Hot Rod Magazine Power Tour. Why would I want to go to all the trouble and expense of fitting some kind of OD...

If you're talking about the TTI headers, they have been out longer than ten years. I bought mine in either '08 or '09. I've never had a problem with mine, great fit and they still look as good as they did when I first put them in the car.

I did my swap (5.7 into a 70 Cuda) back in 2009 when there wasn't a lot of stuff available for the swap. I used a Charlie's oil pan and have never had any problems with it. They are made to order so you would have to call them but the pans are beautifully made. Oil Pans

With Hagerty you don't have a chance to volunteer it. When I insured my Cuda they specfically said that any kind of wheel tubs were not permitted and required pictures of the inside of the trunk and I am guessing it was for the purpose of determining that the rear wheel wells were stock.

I'm not sure about other insurance companies but Hagerty won't insure a classic car with minitubs. Just throwing that out there.

I was wondering the same thing.

That looks great! :thumbsup:

That's some nice looking work! I would say that you have a pretty good grasp on airflow and can see what the obstructions are. Looking forward to seeing the finished ports! I have an early 5.7 in my Cuda and it has a 6.1 cam in it. otherwise it's pretty much stock internally. I'm 68 and at my...

That's comparing apples to hammers! :p

I don't know if you're still looking, but I have a 76 A833 OD with the original Hurst shifter. I would take $500 plus shipping for it.

I've had my 5.7 Hemi in my 70 Cuda with a TF727 behind it for over 12 years now and never had any kind of support piece on it like that. I've never had an issue. Is it really necessary or is it something the aftermarket wants you to think is necessary?
