    About a mile. Hard to do in a residential area with open exhaust. Even a small block Ford sounds vicious with open headers.

    It didn't get hot. Not even close just sitting at idle. Fan wasn't on most of the time. I figured it would run super-hot. Hoping baffles doesn’t change that.

    My fantasy of running zommies is over. Way too loud.

    Anyone know a good vendor / fabricator for some side pipes similar to the brown '31 on the first page of this thread? (Maybe not as long down the side? not sure)

    Some baffles in the zoomies might work.
    Baffles in the zoomies will still be veeeery loud. Just not enough room there to work with. The headers George used are a standard aftermarket header, but I'm not sure who makes/sells them - have seen them on several cars, so if they're custom people are doing a really good copy job. Maybe you can PM 1bad32 and see where he got them, and if they are available for your engine.

    So you bought the car, knowing it is a purpose built racer that you intend to convert for street use with only a mile test drive? Wow!!!
