I've got an EL Fairmont Ghia 6 I've been slowly working on, was originally just going for a highway cruiser.

Now I've got Pacemaker 4499s, high flow 2.5" metal core cat, 2.5" mandrel bent pex exhaust.

I've got a CMS Stage 3 ported/polished head, with bigger exhaust valves, stiffer valve springs, new lifters and a CMS stage 2a cam on its way hopefully end of this week.

Then comes the J3 and dyno tune.

My TL50 might be slow but boi it sounds good ! It's all about the sound . . .
