Also, I did finally get the motor mount issue figured out. **** was a pain in the ***. Just have to button it all back up and then wait for my headers to arrive.

The only concern I had is that they have 2.5" collector to Y-pipe flanges. However, they become a single 3" at the merge to the I-pipe. Regardless of if the Y-pipe flanges are 2.5" or 3" the restriction is at the I-pipe where it becomes a single 3" tube.
Lots of guys are making great power with the BBK LTs and ORY. Soul TKR is making just under 450RWHP with them on a 364 with heads and a baby cam.
All of the above combined with the fact that I plan on changing them out in a year or so made it a pretty easy decision to go with the BBK setup. Installation shouldn't be too bad either. Most guys say they can even drop them in from the top.

Same reason why the Y-pipe bolts and the remainder of the manifold bolts came out like butter, the car used to have headers on it I bet. I also found evidence on a Y-Pipe rubbing the floorpan. However, the stock one didn't even come close to it.

I will see what goes down. I know I have some family plans so I may have to try and do as much as I can through the week after work. However, I wouldn't be at all surprised if it needs to spill into the weekend. I still have to do my rear arms and transmission mount too but those are only about an hour install between the two.

It needs to be out of a f-body. I would like to buy it complete with harness, pcm, and everything. I have searched craigslist and car-part.com and there is not very many of these in Iowa for sale that I could find. I may just have to have one shipped in-there is one in the parts classifieds for $3200 shipped to my door from Texas.

Since its so quiet in here I'll share a wedding pic. Me and the wife on the inside and my brother and her sister on the outside.
Now if I can only get her involved in the whole racing/car thing
Lol
