Hey Guys, I just finished the paint on my 56 special and now I want to have my lake pipes installed, do I need to have mufflers installed as well? I heard something about back pressure that is gernerated by having the mufflers is this true, please help!!! Thank you in advance, Mike
Are you also using a full exhaust?The only reason I could see somebody using mufflers is if they were planning on always using the lakepipes(loud).Not because of backpressure I always see old cars running open header,doesn't seem to affect them.Are you into the rockabilly scene?If so you should check out the Hootenanny in Irvine its in July or August I think.Car show area,live bands,food,and alot of fun.
Hey Skylark300 What's up man, definately in to the rockabilly and I would love to go to the Hootinany, let me know when and where I'll be there! I already have my hotel reservations booked for Paso Robles this year, are you going to make it out there? Should be a ton of sick rides there and a lot of cool guys and gals, my wife and I are really looking forward to it. Let me know about the Hootinany, I would really like to go, talk to you later Mike
This year Hootenanny is on July 2nd.if you want go to thehootenanny.com and check out the past shows to see what it's like.Last year the horror pops,cramps,hellbillys,3bad jacks, and quite a few others played.To show your car it's only ten bucks for the driver.Last year was my first time and I don't think I'll ever be missing another.Whens Paso Robles?
That is a very slick car man! Are the lake pipes gonna fit under it with it so low? Go with the lake pipes *but* grab some of these to quiet it down a little.
Yes the lake pipes do fit, barely I went and looked at my car tonight, the lake pipes actually touch the ground when the bags air empty and the car is all the way layed out, so yes they do fit, barely, and it looks really good, I'll post some pictures when I get them. Mike
