I have a friend that was able to use B body 1 7/8 TTI headers in a 68 barricuda with a 400 and Eddy heads with minor mods (motor mount shimming). He said they hung a little low and with a RB in an A body it may be worth a shot. Im not familiar with the INDY parts.

Looking to sell your headers ? I might be interested in purchasing.

you have to install a rack and pinion and coil overs to get them to work.

Neither Bob nor Mayo have any proparts headers.

Bob was talking about having someone build a set similar to the proparts with some updates and possible tube size options.  Hadn't heard anything whether the deal was a go or not. Selling price was going up about 50% from the proparts price of about 450-500 to 750-800.

That's the word I got.

Bob Mazzolini said if he had enough interest he'd start making them, I've been trying too spread the word. I hope he does, they're very good headers. I was told the same robx4406 between 700 and 800 bucks.

It all depaends on your purpose.Fenderwell works well on my race car with a 496 ci indy headed engine,440 with tti street strip car and Schumachers on the duster.You can also go the custom route and I've had them built for around $750.
