    Exhaust options for 68 B-Body with 78 400

    Yup, no h-pipe. But DaveT is correct, 2-1/4” all the way back from the manifold.

    Turn-down tailpipes? Yuck!

    Check my age,, I did it both ways & like the turndowns better. Just my opinion. On mine turndowns were factory, I was younger when I tried the tips.

    Manifolds or headers?

    Also for the ‘street’ it’s always better too err on the “low side” on every guess of what parts to employ.

    Manifolds or headers?

    You said "low speed torque" in OP, cast iron manifolds IMO. Way easier for piping,etc.; and you'll never notice the difference. Headers are nice, but a waste IMHO for what you want. Cast iron will last forever/almost.

    Exhaust Manifold gasket job 3838

    Well 20# isn’t all that much, “snug” with a 6-8” handle(wrench/ratchet handle) with a tad more? My 68yr old ‘torque’ elbow knows almost exactly where it’s at! Seriously it’s not a whole lot from snug.

    Factory exhaust systems, welded or clamped?

    Tomorrow Justin- 60's had chrome buttons that I remember. Black on my '68. I start shaking my head when reading/looking at some stuff in catalogs/internet. Definitely not what I remember sometimes. Course, remembering is the operative word! Maybe 'lewtot' will chime in again? Went to 50th class...

    Factory exhaust systems, welded or clamped?

    Going a little off-topic but I remember reading a resto(?) guide years ago and author was saying seat release slider knob was chrome on a '68(?). So I went & looked, nope he was wrong. So I classify myself as an "expert" when stuff gets asked that I know I've never replaced; that's one of the...

    Factory exhaust systems, welded or clamped?

    Justine I can totally agree with what you say. When I was working on mine it was "change this/better that" we never knew about restoration/collectibility. Heck, I can remember spray painting right over the QC stamps,etc just to get to one overall color. Didn't know any better and never thought...

    Factory exhaust systems, welded or clamped?

    Although the memory does get foggy at times; also at least for me I have to separate gm/Ford/mopar at times also. It's hell getting old.
