    Here's a good link for lake pipes. http://www.bigjims.net/lightspme.htm and here's a pic of their product.....

    Somebody posted this link last week, I'll be ordering the triple dumps for the Merc.

    The high exit headers are called Lakester headers.....

    I guess I did things cheep back when my 57 and my 64 I weled a pc. of 2" galvinized pipe threaded on one end to my exhaust pipe and had a 2" cap with a short bar welded to it for lake dumps. I was going down the toll road with regular lakers with them 1/2 open when I got where I was going 200+ mi. the part of the cap that covered the pipe had burned off had to buy new caps.

    We had to put grease on the pipe cap threads so that they would come back off easy after the exhaust heat got to them. I had a couple sets of these myself.

    I don't know if these really helped horsepower, but we were coooooooooool.
