I’m bored
« on: April 02, 2020, 12:36:59 AM »
This is day 10 of my compulsory home isolation, and I’m bored. Since I can’t go for a drive, I thought I’d take off the dump pipe caps on the exhaust on my Galaxie. I’ve never started it with the exhaust uncapped, and was curious to hear what the 427SOHC sounded like through open headers. I only uncapped the drivers side, as they are a PITA to get on and off. I’m thinking of adding some of those electric exhaust cut outs, might have to do that after hearing this. Enjoy.

Sounds good!  I've got electric cutouts on my Comet; I really like them:-)

Thanks. While I do also like the fastback body style, especially on a race car, I very much like the Thunderbird inspired formal roof.

Sounds great Todd. Should uncork it in a shed! It will blow your mind....and the neighbours!

Should be a meme in that;
"I don't always listen to uncorked cammers. But when I do so do the neighbours."

:)

Stay safe & try enjoy the isolation.
