can i use atr headers with your 3 inch downpipe. i installed the downpipe i got from you and it went on with no problem.

Atr

I would think so, but they were built around stock headers, so I don/t know for sure. Maybe someone else has done this---Sorry

The ATRs are the dual stage where the crossover merges right at the up pipe, right? If so they are like my Kenne Bell headers and that downpipe wouldn't fit. I had to cut it and have an extra 3" or so of pipe welded in to make it clear. I wrapped it with header wrap so you can't tell it's been modified. BTW, going from a 2.5" DP with elbow to the LT 3"DP with no elbow made a huge difference in spool and power with my TA64.

headers

I just looked at an ATR catalog--their headers look like a copy of the stock headers, except the drivers side. I am pretty sure they will clear.

i used the downpipe with a ta66 on my 84 and it feels exceptonal but i wanted to add headers to see how good it will feel. this question is for lee,what headers do you use on your car and where could i get a set. or what headers do you think i should use . my car has a duttweiler front mount,72's,trans+,3 1/2 air meter,3 inch exhaust,atr wastegate,extender extreme chip,62 mm throttle body, custom intake ,custom intake manifold and a 50 shot of nitrous.

Hey Lee are you still making your 3in down pipe? if so how much are they? solid, 2 peice, 3 peice? thanks

?

turbogimp, Sorry no more DP.
roderick, My headers are stock that I have done some work on.
I recently helped a local friend install a set of Postons that we ran into some problems with fitment. I guess ATR would be my choice.

We have the Lee Thompson Down pipe with the ATR headers and it worked
