Mandrel Bent Headpipes

Back when I ran 340 manifolds with my original engine I had 2 1/2" TTI head pipes and they did not have any dents. My car is auto on the floor. The driver's side pipe made a sharp turn off the manifold and swept back just above the torsion bar then turned down after the starter. It fit with plenty of clearance and was a work of art. I know TTI sold a different head pipe for 4 speed cars cause it could not be routed the same as the pipe I had. Auto on the column I don't know. I have that head pipe in storage if anyone wants a picture PM me and I'll post it here.
