    I made a trade with my nephew who grew up cutting his teeth on Foxes. He agreed to install some of the parts I've had under the bench waiting ('cause I'm a lazy $hit...), GT40P heads and an Exploder intake with a 75mm TB. He ended up adding a B cam, and headers (I thought my BBK's would fit...). and ended up putting my Bassani catted X pipe back on, taking all the smog stuff off...

    What a difference!! this car is a WHOLE lot quicker now :D

    Only thing I don't like is the noise... that Bassani is frickin LOUD!!
    I want to keep running it, are there any good free flowing muff's that will be a little more "neighbor" friendly at 5:00 am??:shrug:

    Not exactly sure... guy I know had them for sale used, said they were Flowpaths or something. Problem is, the guy is a pathological liar.... His nick name is "why would I lie Mike"
    I couldn't find any markings on them, but they were in good shape, 2.5" diameter, catback ball and socket with chrome tips for cheep beans, so.....:rolleyes:

    yea pretty sure that is a mac catback, like people already said, magnaflow and dynomax make good stuff.

    you also might want to check bassani out, their stuff sounds pretty sweet

    Every Bassani I ever heard was obnoxiously loud.
