Vetto1974 said: Hi Sounds and Look Good. Question, what headers, side pipes, and cover are you using? I am looking for one for my Vette
The headers and side pipes are hooker. the inserts were the stock hooker ones but they were to restrictive in my opinion so I replaced them with Vett packs from Classic chambered Exhaust. The headers and pipes were on the car when I got it, the shields I added. I got them from steel shields.
Thanks again for all the compliments. Im an old school hot rod guy so this is right up my ally

Don't apologize for not having a "purists" car! Corvettes are ours, to do with them what makes us happy. I'm sure Harley Earl and Zora Duntov would be spinning in their graves if they saw my car...
With apologies to whomever said it first, but NCRS can also stand for "Not Correctly Restored Stingray."
Pipes sound incredible, by the way!

Looks and sounds great. Nice work. Have you heard or read anything about the OBX or Maximizer exhaust headers and side pipes? There stainless steel. I'm thinking of using them and was wondering if anybody had input. Any advise? Thanks,George
