Re: just bought maro with 1971 chevy 350

Make your first mod exhaust, and do the whole system while you're at it - you'll save money in the long run. Not only will headers make your ride faster, it will sound like a real muscle car

(unless you go with vortec heads, which need different headers)

The headers themselves are easy to bolt up, after which you can drive to the exhaust shop to get everything welded together. Open headers =

Congrats on the new ride!

Re: just bought maro with 1971 chevy 350

Congrats ! I also agree with getting the whole exhaust done right first!
Full length headers a must for best power.

And cruisin with open headers sucks !!! I did that after I installed my big tubes on the 383. After a 35 min drive, I had a wicked headache and my stomach was all messed up that day !! Between the noise level and fumes.......

good luck with the new car....go beat up on some mustangs !
