I put a set of those on my 84. No, the insides don't stay red for long! And they sound great if you have the cat still on. If you pull the cat, you might as well be running straight pipes! I had my cat removed and replaced with a true-dual 2.25" system and had to switch to 50 series flowmasters to keep my sanity!

Looks very :cool: Rose. That is going to be one wicked ride when finished! I just ordered pair of Stahl headers and then it's time to start making custom sidepipes.
Keep us posted!!! :D

Sounds like you are also in the ''let do MORE'' mode!! :lol:
I haven't really given much thought to the ''power'' part yet....Rosie runs so damn good...kinda leery about touching anything!! I think when the time does come...will just pull the motor and replaced it with a 502 or the equivilent...Hubby said I could have his LT1 if he even decides to go for more ''power'' in the C4! :yesnod:
