If you have a QTP cutout he will have to make you a DMH motor/plate. I ran into this last year. I had bought a QTP and wasn't happy with it. I talked to the guy that runs DMH, can't remember his name, he said his cutout is a little different than the QTP. The DMH is a very nice piece.

I have a new 4" DMH sitting here in the house. It's f-ing huge! I'm doing a 3-4" FM merge, 4" cutout, then reducing back to my 3" Hooker.
I haven't bought the cutout yet.
Are you going to do a turndown? I'm not sure how much room there is going to be in the fbody cubby in the floorboard.
I thought about buying a 4" mandrel 45 and welding it to the blank flange that comes with the E-cutout.
The 4" E-cutout bolt holes are not keyed like the 3", so there will be no rotating the cutout or turndown without cutting the flange off the cutout,
spinning it, then welding it back up.
It looks like the dynomax will put the E-cutout at a 45 degree up or down angle. Or am I seeing things? It looks like the Race Ready (pic#1) might have a better flange orientation than the dynomax (pic#2). I don't want clearance issues...
I did find this: http://www.summitracing.com/parts/RRP-T400B/, but don't like the sharp angle and don't know if it will line up.
I can't find any other 4" flanged dumps
Here's the current 3" QTP setup
Not trying to hyjack, but could anyone post up pics of their 4"? I've seen a clean 3.5 back by the axle, but would love to see a 4" in the cubby.

It would have been nice to know ahead of time as I bought that one because it supposedly fit. I just can't believe how poor the craftsmenship of it is. The DMH 4" comes with it's own flange, which I've never seen anyone mention before. You're a funny guy

The orientation of the Race Ready flange is fine for the standard Fbody location

im running the 4'' race ready and dont like how open the motor is when its mounted. I've already broken the motor from lightly rubbing a speedbump. Does anyone if raceready makes an enclosed motor case like the upgraded one from qtp? i would hate to buy a new setup from qtp$$$

Formally Simplɘ Jack
Don't mean to hijack I just don't want to make another thread but I'm looking into electric cutouts cuz Im planning on headers for next spring so I want put something abit loud for the time being and I want to keep my slp dual/duals. So my question is if I put a electric cutout, will it sound decent with stock headers and stock manifolds?
