If anyone is considering doing magnum manifolds on your car while your at the junkyard pulling the manifolds snag the downpipe too. I was having some clearance issues on the drivers side causing issues with the kickdown linkage. So I got the bright idea of using the downpipe off my 2001 ram parts truck. I cut it about halfway on the crossover and it fit perfectly. No bending or hammering required. I am using a floor shifter with a cable im not sure if this would clear a column shift linkage or not. I figured id let yall know just incase someone is having similar issues

Me too! Im addicted to them now! Im still learning how to tune them. Next I want to learn how to rebuild them. It's a lost art these days not many "techs" my age or younger know how to build a good carb. I want to get really prolific with them.

My engine came from Blueprint Engines and uses an Edelbrock RPM Air Gap which is only drilled for square bore carbs. Would love to run a TQ, but....
