Wow, those seats really came out nice. I see so many that have been done that have weird fitment issues. Your attention to detail is spectacular. It really ties together nicely with the red as well.

Here you go. Again, this is the 3" and a solid roller cam/SBC (forgive me). My wife has a few of me driving off, but they never really seem to show how darn loud they are.

I bought the 3" Summit mufflers for the same reason as you. They are louder than I would like, but I can certainly live with them. I do like the tone. Sound deadening helped a bit as well.

What other options might there have been? I can't imagine much, other than maybe an auto vs. stick, maybe glass defrosters or something.

Yes, pretty much this. Do you have a stall in the car? That would be part of the consideration in tuning it I would think.

Took me a while going back and forth but I see the second pull definitely made more power. The first pull had more peak torque. Should be a tire-fryer for sure!

My guess will be -10-15hp on the first run, and with some tuning maybe right at 405.
