Passenger side
Driverside
2" pipes out of the heads stepping up to 2 1/8", 4" collector stepping down to 3" x-pipe going into Magnaflow mufflers dumped. The entire system was built by M&M Mufflers in Auburn, CA. I am going to get the entire exhaust jet coated.

Got the fuel line in today, all i need to do is pressure test it, get some 91, wire the gauges and ignition up and i can start her up. Might start her up though after i've gotten the interior in which might be one more day of work after the dash.

No i haven't bought an air filter assembly yet cause i don't know how much room i'll have. I believe the distributor will clear with my 6 inch cowl. It might be close though.

Looks great!
Does that suspension have any adjustability outward? Looks like the front wheels could use a 1/2" spacer?

No adjustment outwards, anymore outwards and it would hit. I need to get ti aligned and hope it doesn't hit, right now the passenger tire hits the fender if i turn it all the way over, the driverside did it too but i adjust it back so it wouldnt. Didn't know the passengerside was doing it too until i took it to the exhaust shop.
