Do most sidepipe kits come with the piping to mount to stock manifolds or LT headers ????

Ive got a video or two, Ill work on getting them up, the sound isnt the greatest, but its a start for you

1974 L48 older style hooker headers, custom pipes, and sweet thunder inserts

again, the sound isnt great, but for an L48, there are no better inserts than sweet thunder!
