I didn't get a chance to review whats there but there are some pics during construction of a set set I built for a 32 that I built for a customer--stainless, nascar type merge collectors and stainless Cobra type side pipes

I sold this car in 2000, but here are the side pipes I built for it. The photo was taken before I sent everything off to be Jet-Hot coated. My headers were from Sanderson and they will build a header extension to any length you want. I put a regular glass pack inside the collector rather than use one of their inserts so I could cut down on the noise level somewhat.

My recent thread Jet Hot Coatings Testimonial shows the lakes style headers that I built, and there's a shot of rumrumm's (Lynn's) previous roadster there, too. There're a bunch of pictures of the American Grafitti style on project thx138's threads - Project American Graffiti Coupe Did you try the search feature?Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

One thing I want to warn you about regarding side pipes: never wear shorts, always wear jeans when you drive it. Because sooner or later you are going to burn you leg on the side pipe.

09-21-11g.jpg09-21-11l.jpg09-21-11a.jpgMine aren't really side pipes as they have caps, so I guess they are actually "lakes pipes". They run from the headers under the frame at a slight angle towards the back.
My exhaust is all stainless but I don't like the looks of stainless after it heats up so I had it media blasted and painted with Eastwoods hi-temp black and it has held up well.

That looks really good, Mick. Nice choice of color on the pipe.

This isn't a "street rod", but has side pipes. Both used to function, but currently only the RH side does.

Education is expensive. Keep that in mind, and you'll never be terribly upset when a project goes awry.

I covered mine with perforated stainless, but that doesn't show up very well in this photo upon first glance.

That is a damn nice Bucket Russ and I certainly like the two pipes each side from the normal four into one that most T's have.
I maybe a little crazy but it stops me going insane.

They are Speedway fender well headers. I cut the collector off, welded on a collector, then modified a 90 to get the angle.

This shot shows the old collector that was cut off and the new one that was installed
