he might laugh, don't know the dude myself but I think there might be a different idea in what you see as custom work and what he sees as a 2-day job.
Exactly. I was thinking of maybe doing all the pipe cutting and test fitting myself and just having him fabricate it. They make custom header kits that just have a bunch of mandrel bent pipes at different angles at Summit. I can put in the hours to make sure it will fit right/lengths are the same, but I'm not confident enough of a welder to do it all myself.
I was always curious as to how these made a different sound, seems like a crossover midpipe would basically do the same thing.
I wondered this too but it's just because you are separating the exhaust pulses opposite of eachother (hense the 180* name) and keeping them seperate versus all the pulses being merged into one. It's actually a way of mimicking the firing order from a flat plane V8 like Ferrari made famous, because that's why they sound this way with just straight headers. Don't take that 100% as truth, it's just what I've read on a couple forums.
Of they work in fox body they can prob work on a sn. Unless its the 4.6 might be to wide.. That would be cool tho..
That's my fear, also that my convertible brace bar might cause some issues.
holy oil-pan cooker!
wow. i've never seen anything like this before. I beg of you, do it!
I read about them on a camaro forum and a jeep forum and supposedly as long as theres an air gap, and there's heat tape/heat shield and you don't go revving the piss out of it standing still the oil stays pretty cool.
Trust me I want to do it!
