Looking good, but does it matter that the exhaust pipes from the head to the first collector look different lengths?

Thanks 85_Z31 It took me a while to find this one but I wasnt going to be happy till I found one.

gingofthesouth it does matter if you want tuned length flows but then you also have to make them in relation to your firing order as well. these will still be improvement over the standard manifold but not as good as tuned ones.
