Will, When you post photos from photobucket post them as a IMG and not a http.

That way they will show up on the post without having to click on each picture.
They look great.
Have a good one

Who's Tony?

The new exhaust system looks like it belongs under there, nice fit.

Can you tell me where you got the L and R stainless lap joint exhaust clamps? All I've ever found is the same lap joint clamps that face one direction only. Summit Racing or Jegs sell only a 1 direction clamp. There is no choice of Left or Right. I've been searching for the clamps that you have.
Thanks....

Nice setup. I also have melrose headers and Corsa pace cars. Works really well and sounds strong. I. believe the melrose are underrated.
