haynss Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 DMH i got these guys and i like it. just had it welded on and i wired it to the dash, pretty straight forward. seems like a quality piece. got mine for 190 i think it was shipped. I was talking to the owner when i got mine and the rates are going up a couple bucks though just cause materials are going up. give them a shout.

04CHASE Posted June 9, 2006 Report Share Posted June 9, 2006 the dmh are nice but like i have stated before the butterfly style e cut outs to tend to leak . if it were me and i will eventually get the dougs headers e cutouts with the guilliotine style flange, they are expensive but my g/f's dad has them on his 37 ford and they are bad ass!!!

I thought about the noweeds one but couldnt find the justification. plus when you open them up they all sound the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BenKey Posted June 11, 2006 Report Share Posted June 11, 2006 PerTronix bought out Doug's headers. So where do you get them now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoCalSS Posted June 12, 2006 Report Share Posted June 12, 2006 PerTronix bought out Doug's headers. So where do you get them now? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> According to their site you can still get them. They just operate under Pertronix. They still have a shop in Riverside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maddogss Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 We just installed a set of the mcc power plates in a big block chevelle the seemed kinda cheezy but for the price not a bad unit, the bad part was that they are made to order and they took like 3 weeks to get them that was like two weeks ago and are standing up to the heat of the big block interested to see how long they last Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xero Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 I look at these sites and am pizzled. Why would you want a cutout that just bypasses the muffler? If it were me, I would put them before the cat. no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were me, I would put them before the cat. no? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I think you would have issues with the O2 sensors when putting a cutout before the cats which may require additional tuning to delete the sensors from the pcm...Still bypassing the muffler gives you a more free flowing exhaust. I would think the performance value would be similar to a nice cat back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
