Arent the stock headers restrictive??? Why keep them??
>>Just wondering<<

the engine originally had cast iron manifolds so i just gave em the ones that used to be in my car. right now hes on a budget so im trying to give em as much stuff as i can get, i got some longtube headers from a 68 mustang but i doubt theyll work and theyll definitely be a pain in the ass to install , so for now those headers will work.

On my 84 I put stock manifolds from a 93 on it along with an H-pipe and dynomax mufflers and it really woke up that car. I was in High school and had basically no money. The exhaust was 10 times better than the stock 84 single exhuast.

thats pretty much what im going to do to this car but mac mufflers with turndowns. it should be loud enough.
