NICE, WHAT PAINT CODE IS THAT ?
 
Yes, it did look real low in the first picture. That makes a lot of difference, almost the same height as the lower potion of the dash. Nice Work!
 
I'm diggin' it...... perfect decor for the race office. When do we get to see more?
 
Doin up a 74 Dart Sport also. Can you tell me the Headers you plan on using with the W2 Heads?

Looks like they were already on the Car for previous Motor. Curious if these will fit the W2 heads though. Were W2s on the Car previously?

I bought these especially for w2heads for the dart they have been in the car, broke the motor and took it back out. A plastic bag got stuck to the bottom of the header and left a brown spot on it.wind blew it under the car .they fit good I'm the car. Alitte closer to the transmission than I like but they fit
 
Header wise, after TTI, you only have Hedman.
They have a verity of tube sizes.

The headmans are nice my friend Dan has them on his demon.lots of room around the transmission.he had to cut a hole in the inner fenders. I didn't want to cut the holes.they are probably better than the tti.cost more also
