The Ram Air manifolds will be 2 1/2"......same as down pipe and x pipes etc.  What size is your exhaust?  I know you can go down to 2 1/4" from the manifolds but I'm going to stay 2 1/2" for the whole system.  I may need to call Borla and see what they recommend.  They are not cheap by no means but they are a great system to have.

Do you have the part # for the Borlas you used?  Or link?

I am using the RA manifolds and their down pipes. However, I went with Borla's. good sound, quiet but not too quiet.

 The engine was rebuilt to the specs he does for his 400 long blocks:

At this moment.....until I, or someone else, convinces me other wise, I'm going to use the RA manifolds and their piping from ramairrestoration.com.  I'll use a quieter muffler than what they have to offer.

It's never 100% until it's all bought and in my garage.   ;D

I took my engine down to Len Williams, in Oklahoma, in August, and he is going to "Wake it Up".

He called the other day and said it's finished.  We're planning on going to pick it up next week.  Pics coming soon.

How about the pages like snowflake info and dash removal being mobile friendly. I can’t get any of that stuff to load right on my phone.
