btw, you really dont need a 3" h-pipe. also with the 4 banger springs and skinnys up front, i can see 12's easy, get gears and you can go faster.
yeah i dont have the front sway bar on my car either and i got the rebuilt longblock in a trade and it was already bored .060. personally i'd never bore a 302 that much either but i figured it was better than the motor i had at the time (nothing!) and as long as i had a good cooling system i'd be fine. and i know a 3" H-pipe is too big for my app. but it was free and it's NOT mandrel bent so i figured the kinks in it would restrict the flow to about the same as a 2.5"...maybe even worse accually. i plan on getting a mandrel bent 2.5"er sometime in the future, but that 3" is all i have for now. thanks for your input man!
