I know they are a quality piece but man are they expensive.

Automatic Only :/

I thought I read somewhere that TTI made Schumacher headers, but I'm getting that age so I can't say for sure.

According to the guys on dippy.org these work great and at a fraction of the price.

You pay for what you get. They are not coated and probably a thinner steel. They also hang lower. I had some Headman headers on my car and they captured the starter and they hung real low.

A note about the TTI headers...

My TTI headers are rusting and the car sits in the garage. Also DO NOT purchase a set with the "thermal barrier" on the inside and then start the car with open headers unless you want that "thermal barrier" crap allll over the bottom of your fresh undercarriage. I guess they don't bake it on, they rely on the engine heat from the first startup to do that. Problem is my motor is high compression and it blew it all out. At a cost of $800 I hoped for better...

I wonder why noone can make a set of mopar headers in stainless steel that fit right. I would rather have bluish headers than rusty ones...

The chrome covered ones will turn bluish also.

Yea but the chrome ones will rust too over time. I am sure a set of stainless headers for a mopar would probably cost $1500 but I would pay it for a good set...

Am not for sure of your skills, but you could probably copy a set of any of the designs yourself for that kind of money, and have the satisfaction of saying you built them yourself. Although with stainless you are talking TIG welding etc....

Thorley used to make the headers, last I heard. Schumacher lives not too far from me and is pretty well-known around here in Mopar circles.

I'm pretty happy with my hooker 5115 headers,after I rerouted one tube around the rag joint.

I could do it if I had the equipment. If I go and buy a tig my wife is gonna shoot me tho lol Christmas is too close.

I will say I had a set of big block a body tri ys. Bought new in person, at his home in Seattle. They are every bit quality and I will get a set of the smallies. My hooker comps are like aluminium cans compared to those tri ys A wise investment for any Mopar just don't drop one on your toe you will definitely feel the difference.

I run the Tri-Y's on my 440 and some say they are choking it. Burning the tires at 55 mph in second gear and I have to disagree.
