M U has this hpipe which says aluminized thats a bit less expensive than the others for my 87

http://www.mustangsunlimited.com/itemdy00.asp?T1=438690V+01

maybe just off brand/tougher to install or would this be just junk?

thanks

also it says for 2 1/4 or 2 1/2 pipe...wonder if it would create a fitment issue?

They say 2 1/4 or 2 1/2 because regardless of which size your running, it will fit. The O/R pipes are always cheaper.

Location (north or south) is going to be a factor in a rusty under pinning.

Personally, I would go with stainless steel or ceramic coating.

Ragtop is from Angmar, nothing rust there

I would also recommend going with stainless. My exhaust system is starting to rust now and now is when i don't have the cash to replace it.

Engine Might have to get a Dart block but don't want to and if I do, then 363 instead of 331. Thoughts on what I've already bought so far.......
