Default Video of my Stingray with Magnaflow Exhaust

I just picked it up today from the shop. They had to do a bit of welding at the collector/downpipe. Enjoy

I just got mine delivered last night! Can't wait to put them on. I got the complete header/exhaust system from Corvette Central.

Beautiful engine compartment! I have a set of Magnaflows waiting to be installed on my '73. I'm happy to hear that they are not going to be too loud.

Nice. Not too loud or throaty. You'll be able to hear your stereo.

About your backup lights.....if you just recently installed a neutral safety switch (within the last 2 months), the backup light wires on the switch are reversed causing the backup lights to stay on all the time. I speak from experience....cuz that happened to me. Once I reveresed the wires the lights worked correctly. I called the manufacturer of the switch and they agreed...the wires were reverse on every switch in the last couple of months.

Thanks Vetteguy. I was guessing that the switch was not adjusted propery. I redid everything under there in Feb-Mar. I will check to see if I can flip the connector on the switch.

An update: When I reinstalled the backup light switch, I installed it in the middle of the adjustment slot. I tweaked it and went all the way to the end of the slots and now it is perfect.
