I was going to do a dual exhaust with glsspacks on the 63 C20 with the original 283. Will that run OK or should I do headers with the dual exhaust. Then the question, which style headers, the block huggers?
Thanks,
Mike

run ok? never met a 283 that didn't run ok grin

duals on the original ram horns works fine, won't be any difference from single on a stock engine

The old Rams horns are the way to go, no problem with header leaks and they were very efficient. Kinda high priced at the trade shows.

Sounds Good. I like the look of the old ram horns that are on the truck now, will have a new exhaust fabricated and hook up to them.
Thanks!

I used a set of manifolds from a mid-70's model Nova with a V-8. They seem to work fine. Liked them because the spark plug wire didn't have to cross the hot manifold.
