here is the new exhaust that I had fabed up today by mw66nova. He did a great job on the ypipe and all, also had him weld in the new magnaflow muffler. check it out. Thanks again matt. and this car is lowered atleast 2 inches as the ground clearance is very good considering, and that is matts monster hand just to give ya an Idea

 

for referrence, my hand it pretty big, he's got a solid 3.5" clearance under there, and the car is somewhat lowered.

hey sean, can you edit your post so the pics go in decsending order instead of side-by-side?

 

where is the lowest point of your exhaust?

 

the lowers point is were his hans is, and got it started today after treating the dash apart to find out the starter relay was bad...... now I will have to take the header off again to get the clearance I need for the drivers side. but waht I can tell sounds bad butt wit hthe magnaflow. alot better then the flow junk

 

i take it the header is making all kindsa noise from being against the a-arm, etc.?

 

yeah it is

 

What headers?

 

headmen d-port

 

looks really good!

 

Thanks mike, Matt is getting pretty good at these

 

lol ya you should see the y-pipe he made for my 86! lol haha jk matt. naw he put a flowmaster catback on my car in exchange for a torque converter i had and some intake gaskets.

 

I wish mw66nova lived close to me so he could fab up an exhaust for me. That looks amazing!!!

 

you know...i got family in Upstate NY....

 

Yeah it is one of the Benifits of him working on these cars alot....... Thanks again matt, can't wait to actually hear it for longer then a min or so. lolol

 

oh. That would be awesome if you could. I live In Brewster Ny, Thats probably far from your family though because you said up state New York. I just listened to your car's exhaust on youtube, all I have to say is AMAZING!!!
I have a 305 with 3 inch flowmaster, aluminum edelbrock intake, and a supposed small energy cam. Would you think Long Tubes would be to much for my motor? Shorty's are just so much and I would rather have long tubes anyday.

 

well it looks like it will be allittle bit longer tll I get to hear this exhaust, looks like the engine is coming out again this weekend to ck out somethings, but I will post a sound clip once I get it running right

 

....that sucks sean.

IROCjoyce, longtubes are never a bad thing in my opinion. the longer primary tube helps keep velocity/scavaging effects up, which helps draw the air out of the motor, thus producing more torque all through the rpm range and increasing upper rpm power. my fam lives in utica/illion area. i'm just not sure when i'll be getting up there again.

 

What was the center/rear portion of that Y-section built off of? A simple Y-pipe, like what you can buy from Summit/Jegs?

 

you talking about the y-junction? it's a flowmaster unit.

 

Yeah. I was wondering if you scratch fabbed it, or stared with a pre-made design, and went from there. Nice bends & welds!

 

Cool information on the long tubes. I would be thinkin summer anyways so it's warm out and I have a little more money. I just can't resist the way long tubes sound.

Thanks

 

all of this y-pipe was made from 1- 2 1/2 u bend, flowmaster Y junction all got from summit

 

....and a set of hedman x-tensions that i can't remember the part number for...

sean, when ya get a chance, pm me what, if anything, you've found on the new motor

 

will do, and I forgot about those. lol

 

wont be to long till a sound clip, engine issues fixed

 

Whats the list of items exhaust from headers to muffler and prices

Do you have an underneath pic of what the set-up looks like

please and thanks

 

the under pic is posted, and all you need is the s extensions and a summit 2 1/2 summit u bend and a flowmaster y junction. all under 100 bucks. I have more pics of the exhaust posted on my cardoman

 

I assume the same type of setup will work with the cheapo $175 long tubes for these cars. I have been looking at shorty headers and they just look way to $$$ for what they are. I weld so having great pics like these should enable me to put something similar together. Great job and thanks.

 

yeah this will work for any headers, I really like how wel it is put together. you want to make sure you have a chop saw that is what he used to cut the tubing. Like I posted I have alot more pics on my cardomain.

 

did you say you had family in the utica illinois area

 

no, utica, new york.
