Headers and exhaust setups

What is the best header and exhaust kit to buy for a SBC 350.Also, would an X pipe or H pipe be beneficial?

Re: Headers and exhaust setups

X-pipe for performance and sound
H-pipe to balance flow and lower sound

I drive an Xpipe dual 14" Magnaflow mufflers. Great sound!!

Everyone will have there own say when it comes to a header, and exhaust combo. For me I'm going to have jegs headers with magnaflow mufflers, with an X pipe, they say an X pipe is more beneficial in the fact that it makes everything flow more equally.

Re: Headers and exhaust setups

Lots of brands out there. I prefer a good long tube header with an X-pipe system if the X-pipe can be packaged. Sometimes I run into room contraints and have to go with an H.

Any muffler of your choice depending on the sound you are looking for.
