Just ordered an exhaust system from TTI. This forum is what sold me. The exhaust on my car sounded ok (Flowmaster muffs), but it looked like a beginner did the job. The welds at the manifolds looked like a dirt-dobber had been there and the pipes weren't bent to follow the way they came from the factory. They even hung down from the body some. Well, they will be delt with in about a week or so, with my recip saw. Can't wait!!

I would have to agree that the TTI dual exhaust with crossover fit just right in the 65 Belvedere with the 440 dropped in.
 
If this is for a Big Block, make sure when you install the passenger side header, you have to put in the #2 header bolt 1st.ask me how I know.
This will safge you hours of taking them in and out to get all bolts in.

Thanks for the great pics. I'm going to be using the hp manifolds. I might put headers on later. I'll try and shoot some pics of the installation. They should be here tomorrow (Friday) and if it isn't too cold, I will be installing the system on Sunday.
Thanks again,

Just ordered mine today ! The TTI 2 inch headers and the complete 3 inch X-pipe system minus mufflers as I will use my Ultra-Flow mufflers. This should work good with my 493 I am building. Ron
 
me to; i have the 21/8 tubes and 3" system coming for my hemi project.
 
They didn't make it yesterday. Should be here Monday or Tuesday, so I'll install on Thursday.

Well, it's on the car. Finished up last night. Sounds nice. Not loud at all. i have a few pics of what UPS delivered and how well it's packaged. I don't have any pics of the install, as my friend who would have helped, thew his back out earlier in the week and is still laid up. I told his wife to stop with all of that kinky stuff.
A couple tips on the install. TTI says start at the rear and work forward, do that.
First thing, lay your exhaust out on the floor and check each connection where they slip together. The lead pipes should slide into the H pipes about 3".
The H pipes should slide into the mufflers about 3".
The tail pipes should slide into the rear of the mufflers nice and easy.
One of my lead pipes wouldn't go into the H pipe, so I had to take them to a muffler shop and have the H pipe opened up just a hair.
Now everything slid together very easy.
I put marks at 2" 2.5" and 3" on the pipes being slid into the other pipes
Now the install., so I would know how far they were in.
Hang the tail pipes and mufflers.
Then if using factory manifolds as I was, bolt up your lead pipes.
Next, you will probably have to cut some length off of the H pipes.
Hold the H pipe, for the side you are hanging, up against the lead pipe, and then make a mark at the muffler end where you will make the cut.
Do this for the other side.
Take your lead pipes off of the manifolds.
After you make your cuts, slide both H pipes into the mufflers. then slide your
lead pipes into the H pipes snd then bolt them back up to the manifolds.
Everything is still loose, so make your adjustments, get the tailpipes straight, your mufflers level, and then start to tighten everything up.
I did this by myself with the car on jackstands. The pics in the earlier post shows what it will look like under the car, except I wasn't using headers.
Everythin fit, all hardware was included.
The best $600 ($690 with shipping) I have spent on the car.
Here are a couple pics of the package.

:worthless_thread::worthless_thread:If you got there headers, (polished) be pre pared to put a hammer to #5 spark plug. Or you could just run on 7 cylinders. True story I have bought 5 pair of them. They don't have to be polished, all of them are the same. It just makes it worse to beat a polished set with a hammer.
 
looks fantastic. i did a PYPES Exhaust system on my 65 dodge with flowmax mufflers. I like the results and I did a TTI exhaust on my 65 hemi belvedere with the dynomax mufflers. Flowmax mufflers had a better sound to me.
 
PYPES ? really ? i put a full pypes system on my brothers mustang and was really dissapointed. i know they are alot cheaper than other systems, but the fitment really sucked. nothing wanted to go together right, and the tailpipes were mashed on the bottom of the rear bumper. ended up taking it to muffler shop so the could bend some of the pipes to make it work .......
