Not Ranked
I will be converting my 427 MkIII from side pipe to underside exhaust, for a few reasons: snakebite for me, the wife, and curious kids is no good. My car will be getting a Lemans hardtop, further exacerbating the potential for snakebite. The drone at highway cruising takes the fun out of the driving experience. I don't like having to putt through town to prevent car alarms from triggering. It's simply too damn loud, I'm not 22 years old any longer. My privates are not deficient, so I don't need to compensate. :-) Lastly, I prefer the sleeker more European look without the side pipes.
I put my car on my lift to do a preliminary design. It doesn't seem difficult at all to pull this off using the existing headers. I'm lucky in that I have a fully equipped welding shop, so this will get done. I will document the project in a separate thread as soon as I gather the parts and get this going. Stay tuned, but I may not get to it until winter, I want to continue driving the car this summer.
