Luv it, great project Bro.
Hey Monz and its super light at like 3000 even for a truck. Stock curb weight with big heavy flattie and truck trans like 3080 and its lighter now..
Yup, but gonna be 318 with 302 heads and no 500 hp. This trucks frame would sure need some beefing up for that...
Be a nice touch, but ole LA can put out some juice too..
My "Sleeper Wanna Be", got the exterior look I want but old LA 318 needs some build up...lol
How do ya get this old hauler to hook off the line?....lol
On my 318 the current duals with glasspacks sound decent and not overly loud to be honest. No droning, nice rumble at idle. No rapping either..
Yup gotta agree but this 1986 318 with the "302" swirl heads minus all emissions, non lean burn carb, ,non lean burn electronic distributor has a...
Where is the fun in single zost Bro?...lol Seriously, on my application mostly stock LA 318 would any type of single exhaust be advantageous?

Yup bet it does. Once were talkin over 400 hp im guessin. My lowly 175 hp 318 might do better with smaller pipes I figure.
Yup sounds bout how mine will be routed. 2.5 inch, yup too big for my 80s 318 Im thinkin
I revived a no response older thread. Not sure why OP intended to have an H or X pipe. Im not but tru duals dumping out 1 side at rear of running...
Thinking 2 or 2.25 should be more than enough for a stock LA 318 with stock exhaust manifolds. Duals of course to replace my cobbled botched dual...
