    Well, I got my header from Classic Inlines installed and my dual exhaust is finished. I had my local mechanic friend and custom car builder run the exhaust. The mufflers I got are Brockman Mellowtone 12" steel packs and it sounds great! It has an awesome sound when I rap on it but at cruising speed it's not obnoxious. Getting rid of the manifold gives the engine bay a really clean look as well. I am trying to get the picture here but am having issues. Its in my album...

    New exhaust is always fun! I looked at your album ... looks good.

    If trying to post pics, the [Insert] button under the smilies will put thumbnails up in your post. Folks can then click on them to get "the big picture".

    I'm doing all of that this weekend. What engine do you have, 200 or 250 and how did they fit? Was it easy to put in or a pain like it was to get that dumb manifold out?

    It was really easy, the header fit perfect. It cleared the starter and shock tower. My engine is a 250 with 46,000 miles.
