Default Edelbrock Longtubes

what do you guys know about the edelbrock longtubes?


they look to be good quality.. like most of edelbrocks products... I believe there 1 7/8 with a 3.5 collector.. which works out well for me..


I got a new job and made the decision to start seriously modding my car.. I was thinking of running 3.5 custom Y pipe with a custom merge collector..


is that way over kill? I want to throw a muffler at the end as well... maybe a XR1 and dump it before the axle..

Youd lose way too much exhaust velocity. I think the Edlebrocks are 1 3/4 stepped to 1 7/8. Not sure though. I have 1 7/8 Kooks on my car without any problems.
