I had a pair of lakers on a 51 merc in the late 50s. They were welded into the drop pipe from the flathead headers. Always rewelding because of gravel roads in Wisconsin at the time. Standard lowering at the time was a pack of camels plus one inch. Loved the sparks from the flanges on hard corners. Oh to be a kid again.
