This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    Hello everyone!!! How are ya? Trying to figure out best exhaust for my new toy. Currently, stock single exhaust. I want 2.5" duel exhaust, but I want something easy, if there is such a thing. With an H pipe or X pipe crossover, u know.

    1. Does anybody know if headers fit on a stock 1971 buick skylark 350 without modifying? And if modifying, what would be needed? Or should I stick with the stock manifold? Someone stated I should just port my stock manifold. Thoughts?

    2. Is there a bolt on kit, or a kit thats easy so I can get a typical muffler shop to weld together? I dont know any good shops (yet) that I would trust to do the work unless someone knows anyone near me. Zip 33414

    I'm very handy with my tools, but I dont weld. I see kits available on the usual sites, any better then the others?

    Hey Steve,
    To your first question about whether anyone makes headers that fit without any problem. My son and I both have Hooker headers on our Skylark 350’s. They go on without any problems as far as interference from anything. The center bottom bolt on the driver side is a
    BEACH! Other than that they were great.

    PS, You can usually find them for sale on this forum used for $200 or less. I don’t know what they cost new
