Hey, fc7gtx, how do you like the TTIs? How was the fit and installation? I love your GTX. Good choice of wheels for the '70 body and color.
I've had the TTI's for several years now and they are still holding up very nice. I haven't had any issues with plugs or wires, they don't leak, and clearance around the trouble area's are very good. From what I remember the installation was pretty good. Seemed like I had to jack the engine on the driver's side about 2-3". I had to get the car high enough in the air to wiggle the headers up under the car. Other then that it wasn't bad. The instructions they came with talks you through it and I think it was pretty close. Best headers I have ever had. Still look new. I even changed heads twice without having to pull the headers. Oh, your engine pic is sharp. Very Clean compt..... [sm=smiley20.gif]

I would have went with the TTI headers instead of my Dynomax ceramic coated headers, but the TTI's are almost as much as my entire exhaust which is the Dynomax headers, 50 Series Flowmasters and TTI 3" complete exhaust.[&:]

It's not uncommon for bolt holes to enter the water jackets on heads. Rust, sealer, or low coolant could be reasons for no previous leaks. I would determine the size of the hole. A leaking crack would probably not allow a 12 gauge wire (or similar) to go through.

Ha, I've got to laugh a little because I remember well the first time I pulled a Mopar engine and found water coming out of the rear exhaust manifold studs. Luckily I had a buddy who was a long time Mopar mechanic tell me immediately what was going on. Boy was I spooked when it first happened. Trevor at Antioch Dodge

A machinist may be able to help you or at least lighten your wallet.
