Was some of the best money I ever spent.

Running the stock 3:90 rear with 3 speed + Borg Warner overdrive in my 55 1st series. Runs great and very resposive. I couldn't be happier. I also have Fenton cast iron headers with very small glass packs. I like the exhaust sound until I go above 2500 RPM which isn't too often. I see that Cosmo uses an X pipe. I am thinking of installing one. Would that mellow me out a little in the 2500+ RPM?

I would contemplate removing the forward ones and just using the mufflers that I had to install behind the rear end. But I'm not sure, maybe someone else has some experience that way. (moving the mufflers for different sounds) But I think the further back you put them, the mellower it will be. You don't want to give the sound waves any time to build up momentum. (at least that is how it looks to me)
