Ok guys. Put in your vote for exhaust. I think I'm doing dual exhaust. exit in front of rear wheels or behind or straight out the back or through the cab and out the ragtop? Stainless or black or Chrome for obvious performance increase.

Cut holes in your rockers (you really should have sliders) just ahead of the rear wheel arches. Poke the stainless exhaust tips out through them.

I’ve heard this engine run it’s truly sound like it has a lot of power 400+ HP. Exhaust Iam sure will be done right

Yeah, once I got into it, I could not stop. I was going to send it to our South Carolina home, but we ended up buying a lx 460 out there that is more practical for touring around.

Two problems have emerged as I get more adventurous driving it around the block. 1. The steering is terrible. It wanders and has a ton of play. I assume I will need a new steering box, which I am assuming will not be readily available and will lead to another 2-3k conversion or something. 2. Tonight when I got back the radiator was smoking and overflowing and the hoses were swollen. I hope its something simple like a faulty cap and not something major! The radiator is new from Mosely Motors with a Spal Fan on it. Any tips or suggestions would be super appreciatated.
