I am using a vintage speed stainless steel exhaust. It's a stock looking high performance system

I have a custom setup on my 58, It's a large flange header with a thrush muffler replacing the muffler that came on it(i got it used and the muffler was rusted thru.) Sounds good and was free minus my labor so i can't complain.

im running a crappy empi header with a hideaway muffler Shocked . header is appx 5 years old and muffler is over 3. it is just now starting to show a touch of surface rust. one thing i learned over the years with most low end exhaust systems is that longetivity is directly related to how you iniatially prep the system before first installing it.
