Headers

Does anyone know where I can get some headers for a 1966 Chrysler New Yorker? Seems no one makes them due to the close tolerances that exist within the engine compartment, block, and steering components... Any ideas???

Rob, I would think a New Yorker would be available with a 440 *only*, although 383 may be a possibilty for other C-bodies of that vintage. Anyway, TTI should be able to fix him up if it's a big block;

What about Hooker and the other companies shorty headers? Would they work?

Only thing I could do for my 64 300 was to have headers made for the car. When I stuck the Hemi in the car the steering box was way to big to get any pipes around it and stay in the frame. I could have gone the other side of the frame and into the fender wells but didn't want to do that. Don't remember how much they were but, if I recall correctly, they weren't all that much. Had them ceramic coated after they were all finished and fitted.

TTI makes them, but they are around $800. Kind of a steep price for me right now... I was hoping for something around $300.....

If I were you I would roll the dice and try a set of ultra-cheapie "B-body" headers. They've got to be a damn close fit dimensionally to the C-bodies. The TTI headers are the cat's meow but they are'nt cheap.

Cool, thanks. I can always re-sell them if they don't work, right? LOL

I again ask what about shorties... They have shown to provide outstanding performance within tight restrictions.

they show the same 2 headers for virtually all big block B & E bodies.(and I concur with Dodgem that they'll likely fit C-bodies as well)Coupla catches, tho.. (Gotta read them footnotes!) - the "shorties" need touse a mini-starter! And the full length may need to modify/replace theshifter cross-shaft.A pic. of the full length:

this all helps."Dodge-Him" >
