Another small block turbo early valiant

Making progress!!! Super excited how it’s turning out!!! At this point it’s mostly all mocked up and tacked. Hotside is all done in 2” stainless steel, used a pacesetter “Passenger” header on the drivers side and a headman block hugger on the passenger side. Exhaust is gonna be 3” stainless to about the frame rail on the passenger side then will go to a mild steel and possibly down to a 2.5 to get by the T-bar. Any opinions? Is 2.5 too small?

Ahh Dude that's looking Sick.. Loving it!

Since i'm looking at doing the same in a 65' let me ask you a ? as your reducing pipe to go around the TBar. I know there expensive as F, but how much benefit in terms of pipe routing ease and clearance would you be having now if you had one of the Alterkation or HDK front ends in your sweet ride.
