Long tubes flow better and will give you more HP. I currently have shorties w/ a off road H pipe and I am considering long tubes for the 347 project im about to do. Want to buy my shorties and h pipe??

Longtubes on your car are a pain...LOL...if you dont have a lot of mods...then F-it do the shorty's......you can always sell em later and since your going to need remove them anyways to swap heads etc....who cares....so do shorty's "for now"...LOL

I had no problems with my bbk lt install. It took some time but no problems. All I had to do is jackup the car, and loosen the motormounts. Driver side goes in from underneath after raisin the engine and pass side from top after removing the starter.

in mho the long tubes are easier to install than equl length shorties, yes you gotta jack the motor a little but other than that they slide right in and you tighten em down, verses the shorties when you tighten em down there a pita trying to access the bolts in between tubes, then wrestling with the h-pipe to get it to line up and tighten, long tubes= easier= more torque and hp. and you dont lose much ground clearance at least my bbks dont. its a difference you hear and feel!

Ok, so by the sounds of it.. Long tubes are definetely better even though their gonna be a pain to install. Im trying to get as much power and the best sound out of the exhaust. I didnt see anybody post about MAC L/Ts.. Does anybody know about them?
