Anybody using 4.5" or 5" Exhaust tips
« on: March 06, 2016, 05:52:38 PM »
I am going to a big cubic inch motor and have been told I should use 5" tips or at a minimum 4.5" Its not expensive to swap them out just "Break out another thousand" I mean hundred. The new motor is a 632 inch 800 hp. Any experience here with the bigger tips? the Lightning headers I have 5" od so I would have to reduce.

I'm running 4" collectors on my 632 but they are a pretty short collector...

Think about the exhaust in a hot rod or race car? Would they have to run 5" exhaust?

What size are the primary tube diameters?  Are they stepped?

primaries are 4 inch. thanks for the replies. I did think about the drag car.   I havent done anything about that yet. I now have an aluminum "A" THanks guys for pointing out what I thought was obvious, never can tell of someone is selling or not.

Blue: What impeller are you using for that combo?
