I like side pipes, but only if done tastefully. Performance wise, they suck. It’s pretty tough to maintain velocity for exhaust scavenging with them.

I put together this small block for a friend of mine a few years ago and was having trouble running pipes out the back big enough to support the engine power (620 hp / 580 trq) and not get hung up on the IRS. We decided to try the Hooker Super Comp side mount headers.

I think they look pretty good on the car. Women hate this car though. It sounds just like a race car, and the pipes do get hot. Especially after a little smoke show. Plus it beats you to death with all the suspension mods on it. Pretty fun to drive though.
