Yea, I saw that Rusty, but trying to check a real install for reference. Thanks
That is the CORRECT spelling....Dutra, Doug Dutra, Doctor Dodge.
Their A-body headers fit also....if you have a sawzall, chop saw and plasma cutter!According to the AussieSpeed site they will.

Nope! Charrlie brought me the headers they made for him after he sent Mark a set to copy because they didn't fit. And wanted me to help provide a better solution for building headers for the A-bodies. If you had a sawzall, chop saw and plasma cutter, they would fit....I believe @Charrlie_S had some input on their early A body headers and if I remember right, they supposedly fit well.

They only have right hand drive cars in Oz to test fit these products, so that isn't going to provide an adequate platform to make a product such as headers for the US market where our cars are left hand drive!
Supposedly the Oz Dutras were modded a smidge to clear a block casting that the original didnt. And for that money, I'd install headers in a heartbeat. Why doesn't anyone cast the '61 Hyper-pak exhaust?
Are you remembering right? I don't remember bringing you a set to modify. I did send Mark a set of Clifford 170 headers, and a set of 225 headers. He did modify them so his would work on both the 170, and 225 engine in a 66 and down "A" body. I haven't tried them on a 225, but am running them on a 66 Valiant with a 170. They are close to the torsion bar, but don't hit.Nope! Charrlie brought me the headers they made for him after he sent Mark a set to copy because they didn't fit.

Yes, we met at the Cracker Barrel and you brought me 3 sets of headers, the Clifford 170's, the 225's and the "new set" he made from the 2 sets you sent him. You told me at the time the "new set" he made didn't fit without having to dent and either cut the frame or other issues....not necessarily to modify, but to evaluate and were wondering if I could make a better mousetrap....Are you remembering right?
