65 Dodge Coronet Rebuild

[norseman]

Have a 65 Dodge Coronet project. Has a 67 Imperial 440 CI in it with 4-spd. Has anyone installed headers in this kind of animal and what problems will I have.
Thanks alot

Use a set of TTI headers for the 63-65 B-body and there shouldn't be any problems! Just a suggestion I'd use a mini starter when you do! With any header the stock starter takes a lot of room!

... the downside is that you lose that trademark "Chrysler starter" sound.

Thanks moparsteve, that helps a bunch. Wasn't sure if I had to lift the motor or not for the install.
Appreciate the reply

That would be true, thanks coyoteduster.

Hedman 78030 fits perfectly and is very inexpensive!

I only had to jack the motor up a couple of inches. One in from the top and one up from the bottom. I even used studs in the heads on both motors!

I started using a mini starter on my builds years ago. They are vastly superior in all ways to the early ones..
