Breathless stepped longtubes, going into a 2.5" X-pipe and 2.5" duals with Dynomax Ultraflow Mufflers. The exhaust is pretty restrictive.

Yeah, it has a baby 212/218 Comp Cam, along with Stage 1 Lingenfelter LS1 heads (just a clean-up job and combustion chamber size increase, really), a Lingenfelter high-flow fuel pump, 3.73s, and a 2400 stall.

It's a VERY mild build that makes a nice amount of power. More cam, changing the pulley, changing the 2.5" exhaust, and adding race gas would probably add around 100+ rwhp, but I'm not too worried about that, since it's plenty strong for the street and still gets 20/27 fuel mileage

Actually, the neighborhood association built a shrine to them where they are now known as "Mark's marks."

I still can't believe you used the linelock.
