Re: Starting 1966 Factory Short Bed Build, Bagged, 383 Stroker and Muncie M20 4-Speed

Use the Flexi pipes as long as they are the ones with the 'solid' inners rather than the mesh.

Using the exhaust mounts that come with the brace it makes the run to the engine/headers/manifolds completely rigid and I can see any movement in the engine - especially as we have a man peddle - causing a failure pretty quickly.

Have a look at the pictures I took running the front part of the exhaust on Woody and I originally didn't go with the flex joints - advice from those with far more experience than me was to put them in. Straight away I noticed that the pipes moved slightly so must be doing something!

Anyway, enough of my ramblings.

To quote the winged goddess of victory...Solum fac id....
