I think that kit would look great. Some guys are gonna jump you for it though since it doesn't have the headers.
I guess you need to find out if the 65 inch length is the overall length or just for the tube. I'm pretty sure the pipes on the normal kit is around 46 inches.

Well THOSE guys are more then welcome to contribute to the conversion fund and ide be glad to install anything they purchase. If my paypal address is needed please advise of such

after this car, and the 82 i bought, as well as the Kit car im in middle of purchasing the hobby fund is getting slim

I found a heck of a deal on these sidepipes of they will fit.

BTW...might be in the macon area shortly....maybe few of us can get together for a dinner or so

if the kit car purchase goes as planned...the 81 might be.............FORSALE
