Default My custom OTA true duals w/ X pipe. (pics and vid)

Here's what I started with.








Here they are finally all finished waiting for a fresh coat of POR20.





POR20'd...



Clamps (got 2 more later) and a hanger I made that bolts where the body brace used to be.


Installed (Ignore dirty undercarriage and uncoated headers lol)





Quick video (Ignore insanely rich condition)

you had the trans out when running it? should've gotten a flywheel vid!

sounds good, you need muffs though. dynomax bullets would be great.

how much did the piping run you?

Yes, you need mufflers and please tell us you've done something about that rot in the floorboards at the crossbrace.

Before the rev I thought you were making popcorn...LOL!!!

Sounds badass, I also ran my old setup with an open 2.5" X-pipe dumped before the axle. It sounded a whole lot better in person though. Great job on the fab-work!

Cam specs are in my sig. I don't have any dyno numbers, I'll have some in the spring when get the extremely rich issue solved. I ran a 12.6 @113 the only time I got it to the track this summer on street tires. 4th run ever and it was with a bad 60 foot, I forget it but it was over a 2.5 i think lol, I'll look for the slip.

There's not floor rot by the cross brace that's probaly ATF and dirt you see from my old trany leak. But I'm sure you see the surface rust and welds in the buckets where my backseats go. I bought my car after it had been sitting with a T top leak(s) for a long time and it rusted from the inside out in a few low places in the floor. There patched I just didn't have them painted yet in the pics.

It has a mean idle and it's a tad bit loud cruising but completely drivable. I pass cops ALL the time. BUT at WOT it's insane haha, like cops are looking for me for miles aha. But I don't know, I might get mufflers. I LOVE them without them, but I don't love the extra attention at WOT, which seams to happen a lot hah.

If you drive here and pay me! lol. I actually probably would do exhaust for people, but there's a lot more time and work in building a whole exhaust from scratch, especially without a pipe bender.

It would probably be easiest to take my whole system off then copy it. Tack welding, installing, removing, retweaking, installing, removing, repeat repeat repeat takes up a **** load of time... Anything dumped before the axles is EASY! though.

I can't wait to take this thing to the dyno though, it feels like it's still making when you get to 7k. Which it was doing when they had the same cam in fergymotos car with a 350 on the dyno. Love the way this motor turned out for throwing it together with a lot of parts I already had.
