                Now that I have the Blue Thunder/Demon on the 'bird and the MSD dizzy (found out the hard way why many of you questioned me running the Loadomatic), I am ready for the Ford Power Train headers.
 
 
 Since I screwed up last time with the dizzy, I thought I would come to you guys first for suggestions on the exhaust.  You pretty much know the basics already, BT intake/525 Road Demon/ FPT headers and that's pretty much it beyond stock.  Since I rarely drive the thing hard, I am thinking about 2.25 pipes (unless you guys convince me there is a reason to go down to 2").
 
 
 
 Mufflers are the main thing I am looking for input on.  My initial thought is to use Borla's (we did a dyno shoot out for HR and they were the only one's to increase hp over straight pipe).  But, since I am not trying to squeeze every bit of power out of it (and because a 312 is not a SBC test mule) I am open to mufflers that might have a nicer sound with the Y.  Right now the car appears to have a Midas special on it, just long turbo style mufflers (with a few holes), no resonators and straight 2" out the back.  It's not too loud now, so I don't mind suggestions that will increase noise a bit.
 
 
 
 Thanks in advance
