On the GTO, the 3" splitters don't look right to me, so I will do 2.5 tailpipes and tips. Same with the 71 T/A, the hockey stick 3" tips just don't look right. Also, it has a 9", and the larger axle tubes make it near impossible to run 3" tailpipes. It's a 463 stroker, 315cfm heads, so think it will be much less of a restriction.

I was able to snake 3.5" over the rear on my 1st gen Firebirds. 9" rear with the shocks moved inside the frame rails, the gas tank has been narrowed though. It's tight,but do-able..I'm not saying you need 3.5", I had 3" on it before I built these.
