project '65 Valiant
Have you thought about exhaust with the 340 install?
I have thought about the exhaust but I'm not sure exactly what I'm going to do. Right now the plan is to go with TTI or Dougs headers.
I have been poking around the old early a -body header threads and it looks like the Dougs headers might be a bit easier to install.
I seem to remember seeing a thread on here a few years ago with gorgeous black "early a" on a lift with a under car shot of a nice set pipes he bent for his car. I think it had TTI headers on it. I was looking for that post to get some ideas as to exactly how the pipes need to be placed. I know I'll be modifying a spool type trans cross member for the right side pipe. I can bend exhaust at work. Any insight, advice and or pictures of exhaust on these cars is more than welcome.
Exhaust is a bit down the road though. As I said above, I'll be preping the body for paint this winter. I didn't expect to be doing body work or paint but it's so solid it would be a shame not to. I was thinking 1970 Ice Blue but The factory blue is really starting to grow on me. I might just paint it the original color.
I'm also planing on doing a rear spring relocate before I paint it.
