Here is how my '70 sounds like with the RA IV oversized manifolds and 2.5 inch mandrel bent pipes extensions from Pypes into a Flow Master American Thunder system with mandrel bent 2.5 inch pipes and H-pipe. Finally, Texas TA mufflers.

Don't know what sound you are looking for, but it might float your boat.

If you want more power, go with the X-pipe for the better scavenging effect. If you want the sound go with H-pipe. I don't race so I go with sound.
Are your tips the Pypes tips? And are they the long or short tips?
