318 Cuda Headers

Do your cam and heads really need headers?

On a stock '73 long-block with just a 4bbl,and 5500 rpm springs,(stock cam), I had great results with TTIs and dual 3" pipes all the way.
But I had greater results with a 9.72 starter gear and a 2800TC! oh yeah.
And with a12.08 starter-gear and a clutch it was yet funner.
With the full pkg it was a very fun car.
Oh,also, with 295's out back, I didn't have a lot of tire-spin to worry about. She just dug in and moaned the TQ moan,lol.
You know what? This engine was even fun with Double OD.A different kind of fun. With a 1.97 final drive; 65=1591rpm=mega gas-mileage on the 1.5" TQ-primaries. Double OD was the A833od box and the GVOD behind it;7 useable all-in-a-row,ratios.

But yeah; TTIs fit reasonably well with the 4-speed linkage in there. Just minor adjustments for the steering linkage. And the best news was even the big fat oem starter was not held captive. And I did not have to run the 90* oil filter adapter.
