Well I have been all over with the exaust on mine. When I first got it I had the stock ram horn manifolds untill on of them broke. I have also had block huggers and the Heddman conversion hedders.
The heddman makes changing sparkplugs a real PITA.
The block huggers I have to use the shortie plugs.
The ram horns were the most user frendly of them all.
I have also heard of some people having clearance problems with their headders and there motor mounts.
I have the weld in motor mounts and have not had any problems.

Well as you can see from the pic it REALLY goes into the wheel well, so long term this just will not do. I have heard that the block huggers make changing the spark plugs a real pita as well

I didn't really have problems with the block hugger style except I had to use the short hedder style plugs with them.


Not the best pic but all I have. They were new here and not hooked up yet.

OK now I saw for a jeep conversion $300 and regular block huggers for $99 a pair in summit, which ones are you using, and how much did they run you?

 

[chuck35f]

you are only an hour and a half from wear I drill for national Guard

The block huggers were these Patriot Exhaust H8028

the conversion were these Hedman 69670

As I said befor if I had it to do over again I would just use the ramhorns as they were the most user friendly. Some day I'll try to get them welded and go that way again (more money again )
