What gear? The 370's need some serious vvel tuning!!

Please tell me you're the first smart person to use vbands!

vband are awesome but they are quite more expensive than regular flange....
Since I made my custom exhaust I learned that vband is a must for quick disassembly and perfect alignment.

That was 5th gear pull
Nope
V bands could be an option though

I didn't think they were bad. I looked forever (can't remember now, been to long) and what I came up with is 2 two bolt flanges plus the gasket was very close in price to a vband if not more. Only issue I had was the vbands I found for like $20 each was the ends were 409ss not 304ss, the clamp was 304ss though. The 2 bolt style were 304ss. 409ss works great and will last like 10+ years but just not forever like 304ss will. Vibrant I believe had one but we're talking $70-80 each. $50-60 more isn't worth it when 409ss should be good.

The issue is that if you do V bands... It cuts down on audience.
There will be some that want to purchase headers... And not test pipes.. And some that will want test pipes and not headers
;)
But it could be an option

any new progress to report?

Still being made.
Trust me ... Probably isn't anyone doing more toe tapping than I am.
I'm hoping to have my test pipe design come to life this week... And then headers.
We had been waiting on material.. And while waiting on material another project got going... So my stuff got juggled back.
Ugggg

So I'm assuming this project has been scrapped? along with the intake manifold?

Just read this whole thing and was getting excited to get the last post and THATS WHAT I read!! Come on MAN!
