My side pipes are currently 2-1/2" but I'm going to 3". We are very close to getting it buttoned back up for a test ride to see if the new fuel system solves the missing power issue.
I bought my Roush through Dennis Olthoff's shop. Dennis recommended the dual plane intake. It was shipped from Roush that way. I believe they use an Edelbrock Performer. It is a stout motor that has turned 11:30s/125mph at the strip on Avon's and is still very steerable. I just rolled over 75,000 miles on the odometer. 40,000+ miles of that on the Roush with a rebuild about 10,000 miles ago.
