[1BAD89GT]

What are some of the better longtube headers?But i dont want to have alot of fittment issues I want a good set to go with my 3" exhaust that im fixing to get put in and possibly get rid of my two chamber flows for diffrent mufflers also.

Reccomendation appreciated. Thanks

i have bbk and love em (ceramic coated) if you want to lay down some bucks Hooker or bassani would be great i would only do a 2.5 exhaust if i were you dont put out enough cubes to run a 3inch exhaust.

thanks for the feedback those BBk's do look nice.exhaust size is determined by Airflow of the engine not cubic inches of the motor.and with my head mods and cam change comming in next couple of weeks im gonna be better off with the 3" exhaust.

ok well you left out that part. as for mufflers i would do 1-chamber muffler

flowmasters? im kinda old school but i figured theres probably something out there better these days...and 1 chambers might be a little loud for the street.more tickets.

well if you like old school and you want loud then 1-chambers will deff do the trick. if you want something more quiter the delta flow 2 or 3 chambers wold help if you want straight thru (which would fit your old school 60's taste but wont be much quiter) magnapacks,dynomax bullet mufflers,Slp loudmouth also?

MAC LONGTUBES.....custom o/r x-pipe.........Dynomax Race bullets......HERE

I love the setup. Its loud but it is nasty sounding.

i have mac and they suck, my dad has bbk and they fit perfectly, no problem with the sterring shaft, my macs had problems with that.,


buy mac.

 

[mike keirstead]

I never had a problem with any clearances anywhere. They are a perfect fit.

Mike, do you have any sound clips of your exhaust? I think I have the one of your car idleing, but how bout take off or some revving? Where did you get your custom X-pipe and how much did it run ya?

 

[cardudeusa]

My mac LT's had major fitment problems they run through the steering shaft and HIT like a bitch! BBK's would have been a better bet.

 

[mike keirstead]

Thats not my car.......its someone elses that posts on hear.

I had the custom x-pipe made at a muffler shop in Canada. It cost me 140 canadian. I wish I had some sound clips. I love my exhaust. Its really nasty.

I dont understand. Mine don't hit on anything. I am very satisfied with them!

Are they really old? I will never by Mac LT's again. Although the pro dumps rock! And their catback kits are good.

 

[cardudeusa]

Thats really wierd, I had 899 posts and with that last post it went back to 860.

 

[mike keirstead]

No they were new when I put them on.I love them.

Yeah, but how long have you had them on the car? My friend has Macs that have no steering link problems, but hes had them about 2 years. I was thinking maby they changed the design.

 

[mike keirstead]

Maybe 1 1/2. They really fit awsome.

 

[1BAD89GT]

yeah we put the MAC longtubes on my dads 89GT 331 strocker this past summers and the steering shaft was a pain having to run it through the headers.

 

[mike keirstead]

WTF WTF WTF WTF.....My headers don't run through my steering shaft. Mines an 89 Gt also.

I don't understand at all. Did you get the right headers?
