Heads are still at the shop so no v10 progress. Here are some pictures of the car though.[ATTACH=full]42634[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]42635[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]42637[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]42638[/ATTACH]I sort of scored a Bassani 99-04 catback for $200 with an hr 20 minute round trip drive. Nice kid sold it, shame on him for cutting the over axle pipe when a band clamp exists 6 inches before it at the muffler. How lazy can people be??. It's a nut! And you smack the pipe off with a big mallet! [ATTACH=full]42636[/ATTACH]I brought it inside and started cleaning it up with dawn, scotch bright red and never dull. A nice before and after comparison.[ATTACH=full]42639[/ATTACH][ATTACH=full]42640[/ATTACH]I might buy a pipe sander (because why not who doesn't want to spend 200 on a tool you might only use a half dozen time in life. And polish this tail pipes.  Now obviously these tail pipes won't bolt right up to the 79-07 hangers and the slapped on new edge tips would look like doodoo anyway.  I am considering either SS flowmaster 2.5" LX tail pipes(only tips polished to tire area) , Pypes 2.5"SS LX tail pipes that are fully polished to the muffler area. Or get an adapter and get the pypes SS full polished 3" LX tail pipes(big dick energy, son!)  What do you think?  Is the extra $150 and fiddling and possible clearance issues worth the look?  The unique part of the 3" tail pipes is that each pipe is 2 piece with a band clamp so it offers an extra point of adjustment.Let me know what you think.  I will probably pair this with an LAR off road X pipe unless a good deal pops up on a non bbk x pipe.</blockquote>
