TTI headers

I agree with your assessment of the headers as i have a couple cars with the TTI's and a car with a custom built set, but I do feel there is too much emphasis being put on header size, and granted the larger ones will probably make more peak power but when it's all said and done I firmly believe that it's the torque converter that's the most important piece on a street/strip car or even straight drag car, it's the most overlooked and is the main factor in why some guys combo's run impressive ET's and other's similiar combo's just leave them puzzled and scratching their heads.

When my dyno is up and running (hopefully in a month or so) we will be testing header sizes. Since I’ve already done a bunch of it I’m 99% sure of the outcome. Spoiler alert...I’ve never seen a good set of big headers lose power anywhere.

If you watch Engine Masters you can go back and look at any of the small block mopar tests they have done. Every one of them has been tested with Hooker 5303 headers. That’s a 1 7/8 primary tube. They may still have the 3 inch collectors on them, but I use 3.5 inch collectors because I run mufflers.
