Default Help, me with...

My 1981 gl 302 mustang, needs a few things..

which im not sure what to get, what i need, or how to do it..

i kind of want to have my exhaust to come out the side, like simple glass packed and the tips coming out behind the doors, but im up for the idea of full length exhaust also Soo,

1. what would be the best thrush exhaust i could get for the best sound?

2. what will i need to convert the front wheels over to 5 lug like the back? how much will this cost?


please some one respond and help me out =]

Im not sure for your exhuast. i straight piped all the way back with 2.5inch. superloud its ok but i might put mufflers. The 5 lug you can find certain yr 5lug rangers and take parts from them or you can go to 50resto.com and buy the 5lug kit. i tihnk the kit was pricey not sure check it out

For a full length exhaust, I'd personally go with the SLP Loudmouth Exhaust System. It's what I'm going to be getting once I get the money. Very well-made and sounds amazing. I've heard it on quite a few of my friend's Mustangs.

I just went to 50resto.com and checked out the kit, thats a bit too much for me to spend. thats half of what i spent on the car :P lets go with an alternate solution if someone has it lol.

whats the price of this loudmouth system?

Go to a wrecking yard and have them check the Hollander Manual for the stuff to change the front over to your 5 lug, it's either a Ford Ranger or an Aero-star...

do you have stock limited slip or an after market cause those axles are 31 spline and then the stock lsd is 28 spline.
