Comparing your signature picture to the video, I must say your car looks sooooo much better dropped now.

It has something to do with your computer having downloaded a program that links specific words to adds... My computer was like that awhile back and I fixed it...just don't remember how.

OP, you lost a little bottom end torque but you gained some at the top with it. I personally thing MACs sound the best on the sixers. I have liked the single in dual out setup they have but if your going for all out performance its obviously not the best lol. I have been in your shoes with my wifes 98 awhile back. I started to make a custom dual exhaust and cut it at the why and added in a X crossover and ran it without mufflers for a little while and it felt more like a turd down low but it was better up high. Then again the singleport...older ones more so... don't have a whole lot on the top end anyway stock.

Thanks man! Alot of what I did isn't hard. Just do your research and learn. Alot of people's problem is that they don't know how to apply what they have read or learned to a subject or if they do its on what they learned it on. Then they can't take it to something else...learn on a ford, work on a honda type thing.....

Starting next spring I will have another and more in depth build thread with my 83 seen below....its gonna be a SN/New edge in a shell of a 83 4.6, auto trans and a complete interior swap.

JUST make sure you dont go over 3,000RPM if you have a headache..it's baaad. lol
lol, doesn't sound like a GT any way you look at it, maybe loud but not the tone.
