the pipes are equal length 2.5 inch with a 6 inch can with bog ol diesel truck tips ..

They do go strait out the end. They original design did go out at an angle to exit the stock locations. I opted to point them out strait and finish the car off by filling in the outlet cutouts in the rear of the car.

They are a good distance away from the covers and I can remove and replace them without taking the pipes off. I had to do this when I added my stud girdle a few weeks ago. It wasn't that difficult. One bolt is a little tricky but it ain't too bad...

What did you do to protect the paint on the decklid? I see no heat shields?

The headers are worth about 800 coated. The remaining pipes would be a gimmie at that rate. The coating alone was 400 bones! I am bulding a new set of 180s for twin turbos. I am attempting to sell these as opposed to hacking them up for the new project.

Yup, mine cost $850 uncoated. These things aren't cheap, nor are they cheaply made. The workmanship is very nice.

WOW!!! Can I see pictures??? I like what you are doing. I wish I could buy some of your stuff to help out, but I am a poor and ignerant hillilly. But I would love to see what you are doing to your car.
I would change my name to JD Clampett too.
No, to me, bundle of snakes says you are commited to full race. That means not only getting rid of all creature comforts, it means being willing to tolerate bone jarring suspension, difficulty starting and a myriad of other inconveniances just to be a bad ass racer. I am not yet willing to make that commitment to purity of purpose. The engine I have now is way too meak and mild to do justice to the setup of which we speak. They found that in actual Pantera racing in the mid to late seventies, that the addition of webers and bundle of snakes added another 60 horsepower to their race motors. If I did the same to my weenie engine with no other alterations, it would probably lose sixty horse power. :P

Not if you connect all of the spark plugs.
