    Friend of mine just got a 55 Olds Super 88 & wants to put duals on it. Is anybody making headers for these cars ? Dual exhaust manifolds ? Thanks guys !!!

    You don't need to have dual exhaust manifolds to put duals on these cars. The left manifold you can just run the exhaust as you need it, and the right manifold you'd use a block off plate on the opening for the crossover pipe and then just plumb the right side of the exhaust. That said, headers are a nice upgrade. But if he elects to forego headers, it shouldn't be an impediment to having true duals.

    I know nothing about a ‘55 Olds, but does he want dual exhaust from the manifolds back, or headers and dual exhaust?
