Default R.A.R.E. Exhaust for a '65 Cat

http://www.ramairrestoration.com/pon...ng-branch.html

Has anyone used this system in their car? I'm seriously considering it for my '65 Catalina. Paul at RARE said that it fits perfectly with no issues. Thanks for your input. Peter

I've never used that system myself,but Paul himself personally installed his RA manifolds on my GTO. I'll vouch for him-If he says it fits,it will. I don't think I've ever read,or heard, a bad word about him or his company.

I used Paul's long branch manifolds and matching exhaust on my 65 Catalina and it fit perfectly. Also know several other people I know who have used his exhaust systems with great success. He has good products and good service. Highly recommend Paul and his products.

Long branch.

Thanks gentlemen. I placed an order with Paul and I'm sure it will work out well!

I met Paul several times at Pontiac Heaven. He knows his stuff and I wouldn't hesitate to buy from him the future.

Just FYI: I used his 1968-72 A-body & 1970-79 F-Body manifolds (same) on a 1963 Tempest 326 HO (converted to 1970 RA3). Even though not advertised as a fit, they did. The point is: he will work with you.

I bought long branch manifolds from Paul last fall for my `70 GP. I was extremely happy with the quality of his manifolds and dealing with him was great. They fit like a glove on my car, too. And they look awesome, I might add ! I would have no reservations recommending R.A.R.E. to anyone.
