no bullhorns out the fenders wtf????
j/k. looks badass and even though it may be milder I bet it is still a beast on the street.
Are you planning on coming through the fender (flush...no bullhorns) or is it going stay this way?

Yep! I didn't mean it as it sounds like a factory car with the basics, intake/exhaust/cam.
I love the new setup! At the end of the day it is likely nearly as fast as the old one, but has way more response and far better street manners. Twin 60s is still a lot of horsepower potential!
Why a Carb?

Thanks guys! The twins are WAY more responsive than the single! I wanted something that had usable power, so that worked out perfect. The twin 60s are plenty capable of 8 second passes if I choose to put good gas back in it, too. I had the choice of upgrading these to 67s for $100 a piece, but declined because they would have flowed more than the 88mm did....that would have kind of counteracted the whole turning the car down idea, lol.
As for the carb, somebody told they work well!

I believe the technical term coined on this very board by I forget who, maybe BOSSLX (I apologize if your not the guilty party lol) is:

As for the exhaust, I love it lol. Its probably just as quiet as anything exiting the fender (which really isnt that much more pipe to quiet it down), maybe quieter because its contained under the hood and pointed down, not out the side of the car directly at neighboring lanes of traffic! Its also super simple which is a bonus when it was made or when it needs to be worked on, didn't require bodywork, and is HIDDEN from outside view unlike a pipe hanging out the fender lol.
Heck when it comes down to it my Viper probably only has a couple feet more pipe in my side exit system behind the door...
