Sounds GREAT Jeff. Glad to see you hard at work. If you've got that much time to do that on a Tuesday you need to give it a chance to stretch it's legs. I'm at the house all week working as of now. Take a ride and come see me if you're off.

Jeff, it looks like you have a leak at the connection of your side pipes. If you watch the video, you will see as you rev the car it blows some dust around right near the front of your door.

Sounds great though. I just thought I would mention it so you can take a look and see if there is actually a leak.

I have the hedmon side pipe headers for a Big Block. The primary tubes are 1 7/8. I have the rectangular port heads and they overlap the ports a little. You have to modify the side pipes to make them fit. Im planning on redoing my exaust system in the near future. I need bigger side pipes, the pipes I have are stock and I know Im losing some HP.
