    Probably selling my Boss

    I saved along time to purchase a Porsche 911. Awesome car and very refined. A blast to drive on these TN back roads . When the boss 302 came out, it was no contest. I had to have it. I missed the great muscle car sound and the V8. Made in America muscle car. I don't regret it either. Then, again...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    I measured mine once and I think it was 4 1/2" from the ground at the lowest point which is at the tip. I've never rubbed speed bumps or anything but I'm at stock height. If your ribbing now then I don't think you want these. They are definitely lower than stock.

    Custom side exhaust for you

    I know kooks worked hard on theses after I begged and pleaded with them to fix them. They finally got a ls in the shop and fitted the new design. I can see where they made some adjustment flexibility right at the mounting flange which is great. No they don't mount to the factory holes at the top...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    They didn't use all of my design. They left out the flex pipe so they may or may not rattle. The sound is amazing. Maybe a small amount of hp gains but not a lot. I would by them. If the rattle that's if they rattle that will be an easy fix. Everyone that has heard and seen mine are amazed...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    I've been talking to Chris Clark over at Kooks. I last head from him on October 28 when he said we are working on them as we speak. He also said it would take a few weeks and I think they started working on them about a week before that. He said he would send me some pictures as soon as they...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    That's a good point about people that already bought a set. My design doesn't rattle. Kooks old design will rattle. Maybe you can send them an email about that. See what they tell you. Tell them Steve Fords design doesn't rattle like the old kooks design and you want that. It will cost them a...

    New Boss LS owner

    Dang nice corral of ponys you got there. I wish I would have gotten the LS myself. I'd take the 66 project if it was for sale.

    Custom side exhaust for you

    I finally talked kooks into taking over my project. If they use my design and do it right they will be nice. They would have enough adjustment room in them to fit any boss h pipe . After practicing my welding skills on stainless steel. I think everyone will be happier if kooks does it. Lol. I...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    Sorry it's taking so long. Had a minor set back due to health reasons, and other things. I will hopefully have a video and pics for you next week. Thanks for your patience. I think your going to be glad you waited. They are going to be awesome.

    Custom side exhaust for you

    Yes of course. I would want pics myself. I will make pics and new videos before I sell the first set. Just making sure you guys still want me to do this at that price before I order the first batch of parts. As far as the way they look on the car, at least the part you can see without crawling...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    Wide open . I'm going to put the qtp cutouts on one of these days. Since there are no mufflers or anything before the side pipes they are very loud. That's the way I like it. I left the spacers in so I can still use the qtp cutouts or put a baffle plate in if I decide to.

    Custom side exhaust for you

    Just to be clear. I've been running these pipes for over a year now and haven't had a single clearance issue. This is my daily driver. I modified my kooks set to fit just like I'm willing to do for you. I'm not doing this to make money. I'm doing it in response to you guys who wanted the kooks...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    Shipping will vary with distance from TN. About $25.00 for tn and surrounding states. I'd need more specific address to give a better estimate. They weigh about 25lbs a set

    Custom side exhaust for you

    Since I will be doing these by hand, one at a time I can pretty much do whatever you guys want. I can buy everything I need in sets of ten. I can go with this ASAP if you guys are still in at that price . If not I will try and figure some other way. . The prices I quoted are a very close...

    Custom side exhaust for you

    As it stands right now I can't do it for 350 as I thought. The parts are way more than expected. I can do it for 595.00 same price as kooks. Maybe a little less but not much less. I'll be using kooks tips so they will look just like in my videos. They will be a much better design than kooks. The...
