In Reply to: Exhaust or 4 Barrel Carb? posted by Jerilyn on October 05, 2000 at 17:07:37:
: Hello everyone! Needless to say I have spent about $1500 bucks to fix up the mav mechanically. Now I have to decide weither to put a nice edelbrook 4 barrel carb or new exhaust. The exhaust that I have now is okay its basically straight pipes with metal (what looks like half cylinders) things around them. It sounds nice now and the performance shop called and said that a new exhaust which includes new 2 1/4 piping and and new flowmasters mufflers would cost me around $320. Now the carb would cost me $239 for the part and $50 to install. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys and gals!
Exhaust first! then carb and tune!(I take it that You have the 4bbl manifold)
