These have been in the JC Whitney catalog for about a hundred years. I doubt they seal real well, but they work. The Bowden cable you describe will work fine as long you keep it oiled.

Now this is a bit hazy, but seems to me in a film Red Line 7000, one of the characters lets a girl drive his 65 Mustang on the track at night, and the car is rigged with cutouts using a pull **** where the cigar lighter usually is.

Red Line 7000 huh? I'll have to check that out. I thought I knew all the old car movies but I never heard of that one.

EZFEED if he is going to run caps on the cutout side then there is not much point in running cutouts, he could just Y off the exhaust and cap it.

Damn they don't have it on Netflix

Why do you want to mess with those? The performance gains are minimal, they rattle and leak, and all that extra open-header noise will attract every cop within three miles. Here's a good article on exhaust that shows how to do it right. With an x-pipe and good mufflers you should be able to get within .1 seconds on the 1/4 mile. You won't feel that difference in the seat of your pants.

Oh, Lake pipes. Used to be a common item on hot rods, probably still are. Ford used to sell them over the counter. I forget the Ford part number.

Yeah I looked it up online but the stupid Netflix doesn't have it. I have always been a fan of Lake pipes. The short ones look really good exiting in front of the back tires on a Mustang. Capped of course.

IIRC, the Ford Lake pipes are shown in Ford literature exiting nearer the front of the car, which would be a really bad idea IMHO.

I went looking on line for the lake pipes and are not a lot of options. I can't seem to find the short ones, like less than 24". Everything is 60" minimum. Too long for my taste. There seems to be a lot of confusion on lake pipes too. A bunch on folks are calling side pipes lake pipes. To me they are two different things Side pipes are primary exhaust systems and lake pipes are made to uncap when you take your ride to the dry lake bed for time trials. I always thought that is how they got their name but some folks are saying they were made my lake industries and that is how they got their name. Anybody got the straight poop on that?
