What do You guys think about Edelbrock Cat Backs?

I have been browseing though the forums after being inactive on here for a few years, It seems that people don't care for the Edelbrock Exhaust, Just wondering why? Mine has been ont eh car since about 1996, I did have the Muffler replaced after about 2 years because a weld broke, they replaced it with out a problem, since then I have had zero issues, they also have the nicest exhaust pipe out there I think, They may have changed them since then but I am unsure.

I have heard it is no longer called the RPM series it is now the SDT or something like that.

Just Wondering how you guys feel?

Re: What do You guys think about Edelbrock Cat Backs?

don't they not make any exhuast parts anymore? I thought i heard they dropped thier exhaust lines to focus more on the carbs/head/engine performance parts?

Edelbrock gave up on exhaust and suspension parts if that tells you something.

I know their headers were crap.

A while back.

Qa1 sells their old suspension stuff now. Same part number for stb's.

The headers had horrible collectors.
