My engine has the exhaust manifolds, but nothing else. And can a guy just forget about adding the exhaust manifold heat riser valve if it won't be used in the winter time? Thanks for the help.

Your final transmission mount. spare tire if under in rear or new tank. I had a few. Well crap wish this was over a couple of inches etc. Second it take it to several shops pricing was all over the place. you want guys you can talk to explain any "future" upgrades you plan on doing. And then plan on a few heat shields. made a big difference in some locations like starter, brake masters, floor etc. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2016 Posts: 1,996 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Feb 2016 Posts: 1,996 | I just ordered a complete system for my Vette, all pipes, muflers, hangers - $550.00, Sounds about average.

No pipes just straight manifold. LOUD was a nice word. The head turns when I was first at a light and put pedal to the floor. LOL | | |
