    Would love to hear a video of that Magnaflow exhaust.  I'm torn between them and Flowmaster.

    Here are the Magnaflow mufflers.

    Today I was able to get her to idle better.
    Still need some trial and error on jetting/metering rod changes to get it max'd power.

    Thanks Tommy.

    We're in the same boat.
    Mulitple carbs, add a bigger cam and you've got work to do.
    It's cooling off finally and now it's easier for me (and you) to keep working.

    We'll get thru it.  :cheers:
