Headers

Post by 1972RM23 » Tue Aug 30, 2011 11:09 am

One of my exhaust manifolds has a crack in it and the whole exhaust system is getting rather old.
So I thought I'd just replace everything and put on headers.

Question:
Does any maufacturer make a exhaust header for a column shift automatic trans?
Or should I just find another set of factory exhaust manifolds?
My car is a 1972 RR 400 (now 383) bench seat column auto car.

TTi's will work. Just have to flip some stuff around on your shifter linkage.

Hedman Elites will work too, but since they are RB headers, they do require some denting around the starter and a couple other spots. Been a couple years since I installed a set, so I don't recall all the details.

here are the headers i got. Very happy with them. just buy some good gaskets the ones that come with them suck!

don't know about the linkage since i got a slap stick. I DIDN'T have to dent them. just had to get a friend to help with the starter and cus alot. my car was a 318 and previous owner swaped in the 440. i installed them earlier this spring.
