Fired up the 68 one last time before it's gone, and OMG...

.... does it ever sound sweet! This is the 2.5" hand-built exhaust from the beginning of my build thread. Mufflers are Summit Racing's house brand welded mufflers. Engine is a 290hp GM crate motor, CompCams 268H cam, Performance Products intake, Edelbrock 600 carb and a stock HEI. It's still a little rich for this altitude, but should flat-out scream at HuggerCST's altitude in northern Louisiana.

I wanted to hear what this exhaust system sounded like before HuggerCST and I do our trade at the end of this month. So here it is. It is a touch echoy (is that a word?) since it is in the shop and the camera was outside. I should have pushed it back a little, but oh well, I still love the sound! Enjoy!

Lol, I am sure! I am very excited to have another square body. And I am glad it's gonna still be in the family too, at least I will be able to see it when it's done. If only in pictures, at least I'll know it's in good hands!
