You can use the /6 K frame get the mounts from Schumacher! Ive heard of HP manifolds working. Other wise you headers from TTI, Schumacher and a few other places will work. FABO is a great site! TO get more intel on BB swap try www.bigblockdart.com

A Body Big Block Exhaust Manifolds are restrictive to some extent depending on how you build your engine. For the money you will pay for a set you can have excellent fitting/looking Schumacher Ceramic Coat Headers. Schumacher also sells quality engine swap mounts and torque strap which make the swap much easier.
I used all the items mentioned above and couldn't be happier about it.

the schumy headers are ~$700 for the coated ones. that's the expensive piece.

but the rest of the shumacher stuff is not expensive at all.

and if you contact the guy he is extremely helpful

I say the Hooker fenderwells are the best, gives you room to work, if you have a freeze plug go out, or something like a starter that is a tight fit with hugger headers, besides fenderwells look bad ***.

fenderwells headers are a pain in the rear, its hurts the value of the car when when u cut the inner fenderpanels as well to make them fit. go with either schumakers or tti headers

head over to bigblockdart.com and check out the tech section for headers that fit.

well mr chryslerman6772 tell me how in the hell do fenderwell headers devalue a 70 dart? how many 70 darts came with a 440 in them stock, I have had and raced about 5 big block darts, my current is a 72 swinger 440, in 4 off them I had fenderwells, and one was a hemi, but I have never had problem them, they are are not for light weights who have an inch and 7/8 pipes, but for those who want the most power out of their engine, I think people that are afraid to use them is because it is beyond their technical expertise.

no one likes to see there inner fenders half hack up. good for you i don't care. u get alot of power of schumaker headers or the tti ones. people aren't afraid to use them fenderwells.fenderwell headers don't look that badass either. so ha!
