Re: rapping pipes
Split exhaust manifold, no mufflers, and skinny pipes. Some people run a glass pack on one pipe and straight-pipe on the other, all depends on the sound you are trying to achieve. My freind has a split manifold on his 235 with 1-3/4" pipe all the way out. It sounds good, but a little to "crackly" when he raps the pipes. I have the same setup, but have 2" pipe halfway back and the reduce to 1-3/4" the rest of the way out. It sounds a little beefier, but you still get the rap.

Re: rapping pipes
Anyone have a good pic or description on how to 'split' the stock manifold? Ive heard of people doing it, but never seen it.

Re: rapping pipes
Supposedly the cast iron on 230-292 sixes is crap and they don't split real well. Haven't looked in a while but, Langdon's had cast iron headers for these.
