Just an FYI. Since I have an alterkation front end in my car. The TTI 400SR-218 headers for a standard exhaust location fit my car with the raised port 440-1. You do need a mini starter though. Mine came from Mopar and it “just clears”. It is tight but will work.
Also found that these headers fit the 440 with a standard head as well. Same issue with the starter though.
Truthfully they fit and clear better than they did when I had the EZ head on my 400.
May be useful info for someone.
I also put a set of offset lifters in the motor to get the pushrod straighter on the intake side. Turns out my Jesel lifters have almost the same cup height as the offset Comp lifters I will now use. Pushrods will work fine. Only about a 1/2 turn difference between the 2. So that was a win.
Also got the right end cap on the oil pump to clear the rack. Lots of room now.
Wilson now has my intake. Hopefully it is finished in the next 2-3 weeks.
The snow can’t go away fast enough.
