I will say the current 2" one on the car are next to impossible to get in and out with, so maybe the 1 7/8 is the way to go. I'm going to get a second opinion on the heads, see if the threads can be salvaged with the upgraded inserts. I don't plan on keeping the drivetrain for a whole lot...

Yea they were the 2" hooker comps from Summit. Got on the horn with tech support and he said he doesn't understand why hooker makes so many universal comp headers, he gets calls all the time for fitment issues. Consensus was spend a little more on a less universal style and it would be more...

Last summer I picked up a set of headers to replace the current ones on my '69 charger 383. No markings or anything to say which kind they were to direct replace, so I went with a set of hookers that did not clear the torsion bars/pitman arm. Ended up putting the old set back on for the time...

Thank bud :thumbsup:

Are there any companies that offer complete nut, bolt, fastener kits for b-body restos? 1969 charger to be exact. Most of mine are broke/rusty and a few missing, would like to go new and possibly stainless. Would save a lot of time if a kit is already on the market. TIA

Next time I’m underneath I’ll take another look to see if anything looks bent or not as it should be but I’m fairly confident it’s as it should be. Been this way for years and no steering issues. Should’ve done this over the winter so the car isn’t down in prime weather.... what kind of hooker...

Haven’t been able to find any “quick fix” so I am currently arguing with summit on an exchange. They don’t want to accept one because they are installed, even though they don’t fit as they say. Their tech guy recommended the Patriot H8207-B style. These look fairly close to the old headers my...

Yea I get that. I spent the better half of a Sunday removing the old ones and installing the new ones. I'm okay with say changing a pitman arm, but not trying to replace the entire linkage. The old headers it had on it are an old style with no markings so I couldn't do a direct replacement cuz...

I get off kinda late tonight but I'll see if i can snag a photo. I'm not really sure how to tell if its fast ratio or not. Yea Id be open to using one off another application if its plug and play, but I don't want to have to change 5 more things down the line either.

1969 Charger 383. Installed some Hooker Comp style long tube headers that I was assured were a direct fit from Summit...low and behold, they aren't. The starter is about an 1/8" from the wrapped header, so I'm sure its going to get toasted very quick (its the high torque style starter). I've...

Thanks SGTPaul, I'll definitely check them out. I am leaning more towards the media/soda blast style as a few local guys at the show had theirs done that way.

Couldn't really find a specific thread on this topic, the search feature would pull up random comments in other threads. Anyways.... Whats everyone's thoughts on the best way when stripping a vehicle? 1969 Charger R/T starting to rust only on the passenger side which is peculiar. Also, some...

Thank you demonic and Jerry Hall. Also, sorry for slacking with the pics guys PS before I get massacred, I know R/T’s didn’t come with 383’s...previous owners badged it that way...maybe one day will find a 440 or god willing a 426 to make it a true replica lol

Hey yall. I have a 1969 charger with a 383. I haven't confirmed this, but the previous owner said the 383 was out of a 71 cuda (not sure if being a 69 vs 71 will have any bearing on my question). The passenger side header manifold bolts keep backing out of the head. I've tried brand new bolts...
