Re: headers

[Akron Don <dgallimore@xxxxxxxxxx>]

TTI makes the adapter to go from the Doug headers to the exhaust pipe.  
They did not (do not?) make the adapter to the Doug Thorleys.  I had to 
deflect the adapter on my 3" exhaust by 3" toward the motor coming off 
the header to get it through the notch in the transmission support 
frame.  There's 12" to 18" to make the adjustment so its not a 
significant directional change for the exhaust flow. I even was able to 
drive the car to a muffler shop for the adjustment by leaving the 
exhaust hanging low - just made sure on the drive there that I didn't 
get anywhere near bottoming the suspension.  The headers themselves fit 
fine - the hammer stayed in the tool box.

Doug Thorley sold the Doug's Headers business.  Later, he got back into 
it a Doug Thorley Headers. Clear?
