Header and stainless exhaust
Well, Ive got the complete kit when I purchased the new car.
It does not leak, it does not creak BUT , does anyone else have a thought on the sound?
Its in my 1966 4.2
Ive had my old systems fall off but it still sounded , DEEPER?
Any thoughts I would appreciate.

Thanks Alfred, Ive heard the same as well.
I'm not interested in open pipes or racing and always liked the look.
Its cutting down exhaust leaks in half with the header.
BUT , The pinking noise I'm not happy with, will run them for a week everyday see if carbon and heat change the tone.
If not I see one or two suppliers still have mild steel.
Then back to the cast manifolds.....
will see.....
Thanks again.

Well boys it's complete minus the resonators which are coming from a different supplier
once started the car is a lot throatier
after 20 miles or so and a couple of stop and starts it's back to what a real jag should sound like
boy the stainless resonators really fight the rest of the system
its obvious when you hit the gas!
its the last piece that sounds like wet farts and marbles
alot of work but well worth it
most understand after the car sat for ten minutes then restarted the purr was perfect
look at the pics closely a lot of upgrades but looks natural
grade 8 nuts with lock washers it will never loosen
