Hello Scott,
IIRC, Dan Jones told me my header tubes were too big, my collectors
too short and my exhaust too small. My exhaust is 2.25. It looks to me
like 2.5 is doable. I think Goran said that 3" was not easy to do. It is my
understanding that bigger is better from the mufflers to the collector?
I've read that 3" exhaust makes a kind of unpleasant sound. I think my
header tubes were 1.875? I would hate to see you spend all the money for
new exhaust and not get the optimum size, whatever that is?
Art
