alpha xhaust installed
well i had a really hard time finding any good info about exhausts/headers so i said F it and went to my local muffler shop, told him to cut off from the cat back and i put a flow master 40 series on it and called it good.
the Alpha sounded damn nice with zero muffler on it before we did the install. (6 catalytic converters soften the sound a lot) it was definetly not overpowering. If you want maximum noise i would do that.
anyways made a vid of the sound:

Back to your Headder thing... Here's a link to Sanderson Headers. These guys are well know in the header industry. They custom made a set of headers for my 502 which is in my 65 Corvette. Took them three attemps to get them perfect . There was no cahrge for the back and forth shipping Great folks.
http://www.sandersonheaders.com/
They might be able to custom make a nice set for your H3 Alpha.
Give them a call and tell em what you want. |
