Thanks 427 - I do agree.
Yes, my build #576 is sporting the older pipes, but they have to go.

I looked at ripping them apart and rebuilding, but I can't get the same stainless finish with Frankenstein welds.

One thing I have in my favor is that I have a puny 302 w/340HP-gross.

Yes, I'll stay tuned. Those new pipes are $1,650, I'll want to know they are good to go.
