I'm a huge fan of it and absolutely enjoy every minute of every episode. You can subscribe to mcmtv2 (https://www.youtube.com/user/mcmtv2) to keep up with the episodes. Myself or others will comment on each episode as it comes out (hopefully) Discuss away! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It had a 202 in it and I thought that went pretty good at the time. It's gonna be a quick car with a barra in it. Also lemon squash aka xxxx mid is garbage.

Plot twist, the rest of that van will rust away to nothing before that exhaust ever will 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also how they just tacked the exhaust together and then welded it quickly with the highly recommended "look away" welders mask model ahha also, the end was hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exhaust can use 304 / 316 austenitic or 409 ferritic. Most modern cars come with 409 stainless from factory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a look at this table. Look at stainless 304 316 410 and steel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe 2hp on the bum dyno? maybe? If I can't see it & it doesn't effect performance I don't care all that much. #canofwormsopened Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
