The car is still not on the road yet so pics are limited on a side view but here is one that I have. Hope it helps. Rod

I haad the same issue on my older dart. I wrapped it with sleeve material that is supposed to be good to 1500*. Im hoping it works out ok but dont have it on the street yet. The biggest worry I would think will be when your sitting still and idling. but even then I think you will be fine. Rod

I have a 66 Dart that I bought the TTI headers and the 3" x pipe. Those parts fit great. My springs are moved in 3" and when I called TTI about their tailpipes I was told that their 3" tailpipes would not work on any car with a spring relocation kit. I just made tailpipes yesterday using pieces...

Great thread. Im hoping to see more pics from those that have exhaust on so far. I have the same issue with my 66 dart and 3" exhaust. Just starting to work on getting it out the back now. The side exhaust in front of tire is not an option as the muffler sits back to far for side exit. Was...

I would have never thought to put them in after the x in the pipe. I was thinking before the X. Can I ask why after the x. What or how will this effect it? Have you ever done this? Its very interesting and Id like to hear more. Thanks for replying with your thoughts. Rod

I have a 66 Dart 408 and I can tell you there is very very very little space for headers to fit in on an early A body car. Even less with PS. I am not familiar with Sanderson headers but from reading what others have said on this forum about installing any type of header on an early A i dont...

Working on a 66 Dart with a 408. I have TTI headers and also bought their x-pipe as well. I am wanting to add cutouts into the X-pipe before I permanently put in place. My question is how do I know where would be the most effective place to weld them into place. Also do they need to point down...

Yes, tti sells over the axle pipes as part of the tail pipe. They are not cheap. If the springs have been moved i dont think they will fit but not sure. Rod

Do you have any pics of the exhaust that you fit up? Would like to see your results. Thanks Rod

I installed them on my 66 Dart 408 stroker. Didnt fit worth a damn. Checked the k frame measurements and was where it was supposed to be. Called TTI only to hear the service tach say we have many out there that fit, the mandrels dont change so it must be my issue. I heated and dented and bent as...

My TTI headers hit the left frame rail as well. As mentioned above I finally broke down and dimpled the header tube for clearance. Rod

these scratches were made when I losened up the drivers motor mount and left the motor rotate down about 2" so I could slightly dent the pipe to clear the frame rail. I understand what your saying about the hardness but the paint in the engine compartment is only 3 days old at the time this was...

CCP Coatings, Here is a pic of the scratches that I have with the headers. Any help with repair would be appreciated. If my only option is to send them out I will live with what damage is on them. Thanks to the other poster replies as well. I am sure I am not the only person that has scratches...

I just finished installing my headers on my 66 Dart. During the installation because of the tight fitment the headers ended up with some scratches in the ceramic coatings. Is there any repairs that I can do with this? Its not a show stopper but if there is a fix I would like to do it now before...

My x- pipe arrived yesterday and it looks like very nice quality. Of course it will be months before I am going to be ready for it but I hate waiting to order stuff. A question that I would like to know is will using aluminized piping will it sound different then the standard steel? Also what...

I ordered the 3" X pipe from TTI this week, I also bought a set of the smallest muffler I could find. Here is a pic I plan on putting a 90* on the outlet and bringing the pipe out in front of the rear tires. This is the outlet I plan on using. I expect this will be very loud. I wanted to run...

I appreciate all the replys. Everything considered I plan on using 3" dumps off the TTI headers then going down to 2 1/2" to the mufflers, a 90* and out in front of the rear tires. Being its on the street and I wont race on the street it shouldnt hurt me at all. Again, thanks for all the...

Some very interesting information given. Thanks for the thoughts and flow charts. It seems that a 3" system would be the best choice for flow and power but that a 2 1/2" would do the job but may not handle any additional upgrades for future improvements. I don't have to make a decision till...

Oldmanrick, owning an early abody creates issues on parts availability. Headers for this body style by any manufacturer that I have found are all step headers using 1 5/8 - 1 3/4 step. That is probably another reason I ask if 3" is over kill on the system. Pricing between 2 1/2 and 3" is...

Building a 408 for in my dart. Going with a good size roller cam, stroked, tti headers, tunnel ram and ported heads plus other mechanical upgrades. engine builder is recommending 3" exhaust, I was thinking 2 1/2". Going to be driving it approximately 1500 miles a year. Is 3" really needed of is...

Thanks for all the feedback so far. There have been many different thoughts on this subject and in the end it looks as though I may be just as good to use a straight dual exhaust system. I plan on using the flowmaster 40 series mufflers but the jury is still out on an X or H pipe or just go...

When looking at exhaust I see a lot of x-pipes and h-pipes and was wondering what advantage this gives you if any or is it just a sound changer. I have always just gone straight back to a muffler. I will be using TTI headers and will be running on the street about 1500 miles a year. They sell...

Hemi446, thanks for the pics. The system you have is very nice looking and fitting. I am wondering if the tailpipe fitment once the springs are moved in is because of the clearance between the gas tank and springs or because of the rear shocks moving in. Guess I need to wait until I get that...

I am considering the same question for my 66 Dart. I have no first hand knowledge of either of the choices. What I have found is that the TTI headers have larger tubes and collectors, they are also less money and from those I have talked to say they fit well once in place but not easy going in...

Im Working on my 66 Dart that will have a 408 put in it with auto trans. Was reading the TTI exhaust site on their exhaust system that when you move your rear springs in you have to run a fuel cell to have room for the tail pipes. Has anyone else run into this problem and if so what did you do...
