    I went fairly quiet on my 302 with 2 inch pipes shotgun style. Headers are tight even for stock 5 liter style 50 ford 290 (Large).jpg on the drivers side

    I have a 302 in my sboebox and I am using stock fox-body Mustang headers on my shoebox , modified fox-body down/h-pipes to get them down under the car (can't use an h-pipe because of the handbrake bracket under the car) ,then I custom made the rest . I am using Jegs flowmaster knock-off mufflers. It sounds great. You can see pics and hear some videos in my build thread (link below).

    If you can locate a set of early Mustang exhaust manifolds they work in tight areas. HRP
