    A little more progress on the coupe. Since it's going inline I thought I would make some pipes to get rid of the burned dinosaurs. I may need an earplug in my left ear when I drive.

    Nice work. If it wasn't loud, it wouldn't really be a hotrod, would it?

    Thanks guys!....I'm not completely happy with the front pipes .They didn't blend as well as the rear set. I'm going to refine them a bit to get a better looking blend. I was a little impatient and tired from working nightshift when I did the front set. I had a good sleep last night , lets see what I can do today.

    Looks good. But I see what you mean about the front set. It might look a little better if the front set matched the rear set. I am not too good with Photoshop, but here is my rendition

    I dont know what intakes are available where you are but I cant see you fitting anything other than a custom fabbed one with the pipes coming straight out.

    They do looks cool though

    The pipes are *****in' man. Love the earlier valve cover adapted for use on the later motor, too!

    What's not HAMB friendly about this?
    What does the rest of the car look like?

    I sort of like how the rear set curves around the firewall. You could make some kind of baffles to tone it down when you might want to.

    Cool motor!
