Default OBX/XS power

I was planning to you a set of these sidepipes for my 78. Im finally getting close to finishing up the motor, so I thought it was a good time to buy. Looks like everyone is out of them. Has anyone seen any for sale anywhere or heard when they will be shipping again?

Called the only known importer. He has no clue when the next shipment is comming. All he has right now is BBC. Best we can hope for it to keep checking flea bay. He posts them there first, amazon second, then lets the resellers know.

Just bought a set of hookers used. They sound great.

Just saw you are in navarre.Im over in P-cole near the fairgrounds. Fair warning the city cops in our area like pulling over C3s with pipes. Had mine on for 2 days and ive gotten 3 noise warnings. I think they just wanted to check out the vette.

Sorry man didn't know that. I put the OBX pipes on my car back in March. They fit and look good. Good luck in your search.

no worries. I should have just bought them back when I was researching which to use. I just didn't want to have them sitting around my garage until I was ready for them.
