I didn't know that the RA restorations manifolds were available in 2.5" size. They aren't available now, maybe June, according to them. So it seems like I would want a set of those plus a new 2.5" mandrel bent exhaust. Since I won't be able to get the manifolds in time, I'm just going to run it through what I have now and see how it feels. We're all talking about numbers here but I really don't care much about that. I'm not racing so I don't care about time slips and I won't compete with anyone on the highest Dyno numbers so none of that matters to me. I only care how it feels when I drive it. If it feels like it's choked out then I can always upgrade later. If it feels great and runs great, maybe I'll leave it.
