    I'm having my exhaust redone & have had the suggestion to do it sideways traditionally at each end of rear instead of over-under as I have now. I kind of like the stacked Trapps as they look wickedly extreme & unique. Maybe not the smoothest lines but… What do you think?
    I'm getting ready for the annual Z Car meet this year in Savannah. Needles to say this is no Fair Lady. I designed the body after 250GTO which was no small task. What would you do?

    You have an opportunity to "echo" the vents. The stacks seem to *clash* - almost as if one were wearing plaid with stripes.

    Please show me what you mean. I could cut the ends off forward I guess? Could not use the SuperTrapp ends to regulate exhust note.

    Do it the traditional way IMHO......what you have looks, well, odd and unbalanced.....in a Lexus and Ferrari California sort of way.

    Nice car though.....I love older Z's........

    I agree this would be even more wicked! Not sure how much it will cost to get the inset area. That really makes it for the side exhausts. I don't need no skin stuck to the pipe but would love the look.

    Looks like there may not be a class for Zs w/ non Z engins so I'm way past street modified into the NO zone. Oh well. I'll sound killer driving up.
