Yeah you probably got 3 chambers, most shops will give you those unless you specify. I have O/R H and Delta 40's, and I dont think its loud enough, but all of my buddies think its plenty loud.

87-93 came with "stock headers" from the factory.
They are headers but they are dented at the ports which make they retangular and not flow as well as aftermarket ones. Easier install for the factory.

USMC1775, that vid said you have side pipes. Got any pics of it and how you have it setup undr the car?

Thats about the best pic I have of it. My cam took a dump so I cant take more.
Basically, we shortened the flowtubes about 3", and bent a 'S' out of 3" tubing. It makes almost a U turn right out of the mufflers, and then snakes back toward the outside. They end about 6" from the side of the car, to keep them low profile.
I would recommend getting shorter mufflers if that is the setup you want, because itll make it easier with bends not so tight.
heheh... here thisll help

RE: getting frustrated
OK, that exactly how I thought about doing mine. I don't know if I will be able to shorten the flowtubes to do clearnaces in the front of the muffler so mine will be a little bit tighter than your curves. I was just curious.
Nice drawing lol.
