TTI Headers VS Schumacher Tri-Y headers

[sperrydan]

Whats Better . For power and Tq and Whats better For street driving  . Do The tti headers limit turning like some firewall headers do.

Pretty sure that the tti's make more power than schu's.  But the schu's have a lot more ground clearance.  Schu's are easier to install too.  Way easier.  I remember reading somewhere that on a 500hp motor the schu's were down about 40hp from Hooker fenderwells.  If that helps.

I remember reading somewhere that the Schummies are OK up to 500HP.

If your engine makes more than 500HP go with something else..

If you go with the TTI's get the 1-3/4" primaries. My 2" primaries are overkill. Plus you have more room for those tight spots. I have Schu's too but they need to be modified for 4 speed cars.

The Schu's are only 1-5/8".  That's smallblock territory.  I'd run manifolds before I'd use those.  What size motor?  Perhaps with a 383.

What are "firewall headers"?


Did you mean [b][fenderwell/b] headers?  ------------------------

I've run my Schumachers to 11.59 et's with a 440 auto trans.

 you'd better check out some facts first. A tri -y design is better than you think

The Schu site does show a decrease in power compared to full length headers.  It doesn't show an improvement compared to manifolds.  There are cars in F.A.S.T. that run in the 10s through manifolds with skinny bias tires.  Headers are definitely a preference thing.  There are compromises to headers and manifolds.  To me, the manifolds win out.
