Looking for input on transverse mounted V8 exhaust components. I'd appreciate any recommendations for mufflers, catalytic convertors, and design. Photos welcomed! Thanks.  Tim

Sorry, wasn't meant as a joke. The guy did all the calculations to maximize power for that 406. All the primaries are of equal length. If anything it's a basis for something a bit cleaner.

I wasn't sure where you were coming from! I know there are V8 people on the forum. I was hoping someone would reply with how they set up their exhaust (which "shorty" headers, mufflers, cats etc..). I guess none of them have read this topic yet! Tim

I am running the late model Corvette manifolds that Archie sent with the kit along with the Cherry Bomb mufflers. Everything is 100 percent except for the wiring. I'll try to take a few pics this weekend. I can't wait to bump it off!!!!! I also used header wrap and utility wire to wrap the pipes near the ac components.

I USED SANDERSON HEADERS AND WRAPPED THEM WITH HEADER TAPE ( NOTE THIS VOIDS ANY WARRANTY ON THE HEADERS ). I AM PLANNING TO USE FLOW MASTERS WITH SOME RESONATOR TIPS. AT THIS TIME I JUST HAVE SOME OLDER CORVETTE MUFFLERS ON JUST TO GET IT RUNNING. AND THIS THING SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD AS IT IS.

I used the Corvette (ram) manifolds and wrapped them. Archie had some pipe already bent that I had modified. Used the dynomax mufflers, replacements for V8 firebirds. The sound is a low rumble, not loud until you get on it or goose it a little. Here is a pic on top before the stretch and chop, sorry no pics of the system. Also where my exhaust exits, I had to cut out part of my trunk..  If someone needs some wrap I have a box or two I would like to sell. I was going to wrap further down but didn't.

V8 Archie recommends Sanderson CC090 shorty headers on most of his customer's cars. You can then run custom piping for a true dual exhaust out the back with either cats and resonator tips, or mufflers, but not both cats and mufflers unless you cut out the trunk for clearance.

I've used lots of Sanderson stuff on street rods before, well worth the money. Stout flanges, quality parts..
