I think I need this set up in my car = 1976 280z just over 500hp sbc tci700r4 …. I live over in Vancouver WA.. looks like you are close to us.... very interested . I am running r200 /zxt axles /Arizona Z mounts/ Daves wilwood brake set up . I always worry I am going to break this set up … on street tires so far its held up but I don't torture it ,or abuse it to bad ….a picture of the car at beaches car show behind the band stage held every Wednesday night from June threw September largest car show held weekly on the west coast ,usually from 1200 - 2300 cars are there .. I even got lucky ,and my car was picked as a winner at one of the bigger shows with 1700 cars , they almost never pick a made in japan car Ha ! Ha ! so that was pretty cool..

Patriot pipes moded .. had to gut the glass pack muffler's ...and make my own tube ..2.5 inches then wrap the glass back on it ... it was a real pain to drill all the holes in the tubes .. i have a liquid feed drill press with a machinest vice on it .... a lot of work drilling ! .... the rest is mandrel bent tubes connecting to stainless headers ... 8 inch stainless flex resonators connected the side pipes to the mandrel pent tubingI like the side pipes although I'm a little partial to them LOL Whose pipes are those? the trouble I had was finding any that had an I.D. that was at least 2.5", most were less than 2" so I made my own.
it is a bit loud ... but i like it that way ... with the huge roller cam it sounds really mean ! the car get's a lot of attention at the cruise events we go to ...and it turns heads where ever i go
