I'm sure we could make them fit. I would need the following information.

Wheel base.

Size of your header primaries. 1-3/4" 1-7/8" or 2".

Can you make or buy the flange for your headers. (I can supply 2" 4- bolt's)

Length of the "J-Tubes". Where the four pipes from the flange exit the body to the collector.

Length of muffler needed.

These will be expensive but, you have to consider the life span of mild steel, even if their ceramic or powder coated and the muffler.

The stainless should last you many,....years.
The muffler I use is not a glass pack but is the louvered type so, no muffler to go bad.
Will not rust.
Stainless dissipates heat much better than mild steel.
The muffler is 3.5" and not a HP/TQ robbing 3". I have proof that these side pipes increase by at least 12 HP down low and up to 40 in the higher band.
Less polishing work. If you get a scratch, it polishes out where a coating will not.

I really need to post a thread on these. I've just been so busy getting my cobra ready for the magazine shoot and my "honey do list" at home. lol

Price is still undergoing some thought but, somewhere between $2,100-$2,600+ shipping. If you consider replacement costs of mild steel and coating versus the longevity, performance and great looks of highly polished stainless, it's a no brainier to me anyway. But, to each it's own I say.

If you want more photo's, just email me. I have build pics also.

You must hear the difference with these pipes ! They sound like a Pro-Stock.


I plan on video tapping them soon and posting here. I still have to polish my welds.
