2.0 X 2-1/8" LOW-DECK STEP HEADERS

PART NUMBER:  400IB-218

HEADER FEATURES

• 2.0" O.D. Tubes

• 3.5" Collectors

• 3/8" thick Flanges, laser-cut, contoured for a leak free fit

• Under chassis design:  Above the steering center link design offers maximum header to ground clearance

• Full length header design:  Proven power gains vs. shorty header designs

• Recommended Horsepower:  500-750

• Torsion bar removal:  Not required in B & E-body applications, however, removal recommended in A-body applications

• Header Material:  Constructed of 16 gauge mild steel tubing.  Mandrel bent on sophisticated computer controlled bending machines for precise fit and uninterrupted exhaust flow. The mandrel bending process maintains a constant inside diameter of the tube for a smoother finish with no restriction of flow and no crimping of the tubes.

HEADER FITMENT

• Our headers were designed to fit with the engines located to the factory specifications.  If the engine is not located correctly in the chassis, the headers will not fit properly.  We strongly suggest you check your engine location prior to installation.  (Click here for the factory dimensions)

• Due to various manufacturing designs, aftermarket parts, engine configurations, suspension combinations, etc... TTi cannot ensure headers and exhaust systems to fit all combinations.  However, we have done our best to accommodate both factory and aftermarket component combinations.  In some cases, slight modification or repositioning may be required on your part to clear the specific situation.

1.  PLATFORM:

67-76 A-BODY, 62-74 B-BODY and 70-74 E-BODY

2.  ENGINE SIZE / CYLINDER HEAD COMBINATIONS:     (Engine size & Cylinder head must be stated when ordering)

 383-400 B-ENGINES:

383-400 B-ENGINES must use the following "RAISED-PORT" cylinder heads for these headers to fit the 383-400 B-engine application combination...

• Cylinder Head Studs:  Head studs may be used on the Passenger-side, however, on the Drivers-side the header tubes will not clear the cylinder head studs below the #3, #5 and #7 cylinders.  We recommend ARP bolts for clearance in these areas.

 440-RB ENGINES:

440, 413,

426-wedge,

493-572 crate

3.  SPARK PLUGS:

383-400 B-ENGINES:  Headers clear STRAIGHT or ANGLED PLUGS

440-RB ENGINES:  Headers clear ANGLED PLUGS ONLY

4.  FRONT SUSPENSION:

OEM or EQUIVALENT with torsion bars

COILOVER without torsion bars:  The following coilover systems have been fit-checked with these headers and found there to be no clearance issues...  RMS Alterktion, Magnumforce Tubular, Magnumforce Modular Transformer, Control Freak

• Steering Linkage:  OEM with torsion bars or Rack & Pinion without torsion bars.

• Steering note applies to 67-76 A-bodies & 62-65 B-bodies Only:  This header will not clear a Quick/Fast Ratio Pitman & Idler arm that is longer than the OEM arms.  Example; The Fast Ratio Pitman & Idler arms by Firm Feel, Inc. are 3/4" longer then stock.  DIY clearance can be achieved by dimpling the header tube(s), however, doing this modification will void your header and coating warranty.

• UniSteer Performance:  Headers will not clear the UniSteer rack and pinion.

5.  ENGINE MOUNTS:

OEM, SCHUMACHER or EQUIVALENT

• 67-76 A-body applications with a stock front suspension, using Edelbrock Victor, Procomp or Stage 6 cylinder heads, will require using a motor plate to locate the engine.

6.  AUTO TRANS:

YES

• Floor Shift:  Some applications with an auto transmission may require the adjustable swivel & the lower rod to be re-positioned to clear the header collector, see illustration sheet #3703

7.  STANDARD TRANS:

YES

• Flywheel:  10.5" 130-tooth ring gear & 11" 143-tooth ring gear.

• 440 applications with an 11" flywheel 143-tooth ring gear must use a RobbMc Performance starter #3005.

• Clutch Linkage:  OEM

• Keisler/Tremec TKO-500/600 Transmissions:  It is imperative that the output-end of the tail shaft is in exactly the same position as the stock transmission output shaft for the headers to fit properly.

8.  FLOOR SHIFT:

YES

• Auto Trans:  Some applications with an auto transmission may require the adjustable swivel & the lower rod to be re-positioned to clear the header collector, see illustration sheet #3703

9.  COLUMN SHIFT:

NO

• DIY alternative:  Modify your shift linkage to achieve clearance. TTi does not make a linkage to satisfy this situation.

10.  PUSH BUTTON:

YES

11.  MANUAL STEERING:

YES

• 67-76 A-bodies & 62-65 B-bodies Only / Steering:  This header will not clear a Quick/Fast Ratio Pitman & Idler arm that is longer than the OEM arms.  Example; The Fast Ratio Pitman & Idler arms by Firm Feel, Inc. are 3/4" longer then stock.  DIY clearance can be achieved by dimpling the header tube(s), however, doing this modification will void your header and coating warranty.  (This note pertains to 67-76 A-bodies & 62-65 B-bodies only.  Headers will fit 66-76 B-bodies & 70-74 E-body applications with Quick/Fast Ratio arms.)

12. POWER-STEERING:

A-BODY APPLICATIONS w/ Torsion bars:  NO (will not clear power-steering)

B & E-BODY APPLICATIONS:  YES

• 67-76 A-bodies & 62-65 B-bodies Only / Steering:  This header will not clear a Quick/Fast Ratio Pitman & Idler arm that is longer than the OEM arms.  Example; The Fast Ratio Pitman & Idler arms by Firm Feel, Inc. are 3/4" longer then stock.  DIY clearance can be achieved by dimpling the header tube(s), however, doing this modification will void your header and coating warranty.  (This note pertains to 67-76 A-bodies & 62-65 B-bodies only.  Headers will fit 66-76 B-bodies & 70-74 E-body applications with Quick/Fast Ratio arms.)

13. AIR CONDITIONING:

YES

14. STARTERS:
