Well, my plan was to buy the edelbrock ceramic coated headers with y pipe for $450.00, a set made for my car. And from there, have straight 3 inch with a dynomax bullet muffler. Is there even a significant power loss compared to true dual 3 inch? either way compared to what i am right now, i will be getting a lot of power from this upgrade because the exhaust i currently have is very restrictive. a lot of people have told me duals look better, but i do not want to have split end duals at the muffler like everyone does with a 3rd generation. either true duals or one big single.

the current motor is a 1976 4 bolt 350 bored 60 over, 750 carb, 290 cam but i wanted to get one witha litlte more off the line torque, flat top pistons with the 72cc heads. stock cast iron exhaust manifolds into a single 2 1/2 inch then into a 3 inch, really sucks.
if i were to be more precise, the motor will then have a turbo 400 trans w/ ratchet shift, but as for the motor, a high rise rpm air gap manifold, and the exhaust i mention in the prev post with no cats.
the thing is with the 2 1/2 inch duals, it doesnt seem very aggressive to me. i think 3 inch pipes are the best looking pipe size, but i dont like exhaust tips, i like seeing the raw steel.
My last question is becuase my car cant have true duals unless i get the body cut up, would it be worth it to have a single 3 1/2 inch?
To give u a quick summary, this car being built to be a street/strip vehicle. it is already damn quick, sucks u right back in the seat when u hit the gas, and i am building it to be streetable, but tear up the strip too. we were givin a brief description of what was odne to the motor when we bought it, so there could be some things i dont even know about, all i know is this motor is something else.
