#projectvertfish gets a 408 Magnum

TTI shorties aren't like that. Headpipe configurations are similar to you stock setup but bigger diameter 2 1/2”.

With street tires you’re trans will be fine. It’s a 727, right ?

Not a 727. I went with the beefed up 904 to keep things simple since I had just redone my driveshaft.
Its a convertible cruiser, not a racecar. But I do enjoy the occasional burnout.
If for no other reason than to apply some rubberized undercoating to the rear wheel wells just as the Chrysler engineers intended.
