    Here's a simple trick to make your six banger sound very Kool.
    I put 6" diameter exhaust tips on my '40. Not only did they give the car a little more 'tude, it caused the sound to have a lot more b*** and volume. I guess just like a megaphone. I do have 3" cast split manifolds, a big cam, and chambered mufflers, but those tips made it sound like a BB chevy!

    Sweet sounds while cruzin.

    Royal Shifter,

    I read your bio and I agree 100%! ol 'skool rules! I'm from the ol 'skool days
    and have always liked the "billet-less" rods. Of course, back in the 50's & 60's, only the working guys with cash had their cars painted. Most were rattle can primered. I'm originally from the S.F. bay area so I really know hotrods. My '40 is a shiny example of ol 'skool. Here's what's in it;

    -292 inline six bored .040, ported, polished, LP 327 Chevy pistons
    -270 dual duration Wolverine cam 470 lift
    -3" cast split manifold with 2 1/2" exhaust, & chambered mufflers
    -Alum. Offy 3x2 intake with 3-Holley/Weber 2bbls
    -Pertronics elec ignition
    -T-5 ****** from a Z-28
    -10 bolt 3:55 posi
