Clogged Exhaust System

mostly stock 12a except 4 holly carb/manifold.. put on after i bought the car.


stock exhaust system is clogged.. the first 2 cats were so old they started coming apart and it clogged the main cat i put on when i first bought the car.
when they did that the muffler shop tossed my connector pipe i didnt even trip of it till after the whole thing.

ya man, if you have the money just replace it. buy a header then 2 cats and an exhaust have it custom made and I know the 415 has lots of shops that can help you out on making one
