Post subject:  Headers (Dutras)

My 62 Valiant is in dire need of a little extra power. From what I understand, MP's headers won't fit my car. I was all set to get some Cliffords, but they just recently raised thier price over $100 right when I got my tax return. Now it seems my last chance should be these Dutra Duals I've heard of in passing. What I want to know is how do they differ from, say, Cliffords, in performance? Also, and nearly more importantly =), the price? Can someone please gimme some more info on these? Thanks, Anthony Giampa

Dutra Duals are cast iron dual exhaust manifolds.
Here is a link to more info and some photos.

Sorry to say that the dutra duals are more expensive then tube steel headers but cast iron manifolds will last much longer and fit much better then headers.

Anthony i think Dr Doug headers would be the way to go. Unless you have a all out race car. Dr Doug headers have better stock power band and better warmup than headers. Thanks Ron

The prices on Clifford's web site are higher than calling them directly. The price will be a lot lower.

:I to have always wondered what it would cost for the duals set up. Any info? 2 or 3 hundred range?
