Re: header / exhaust combo (79corvetteTPI)
Gotta post your eng specs. If you are running a stock tpi sytem then you need no more than 2 1/2 pipe and 1 5/8 primaries on your headers, that will actual give you room to grow up to 400+ hp. Dynomax coated headers are vey popular and priced at about $220. How loud you want it will determine mufflers but get an H or X pipe to help increase power and decrease resonance.

but one of the headers is bent where it mounts to the block and it burns through gaskets (how it was when i bought the car about 10 years ago)

You can't beat the fit of the Hooker Comps.Been on my 80 for 8 years now,and the collectors are just starting to rust.I drive rain or shine snow and ice.
I don't want to pee in your pool,but here in Pa.,the emissions inspection will require cats on the car come Jan 1,2004.My Vette is getting 3" pipes with a cat put on as we speak.
