It's no biggy guys but I couldn't resist giving her a small run in the factory with the mufflers off.

355 custome built by John Kuiper.  Everything is new right down to the block nuts and bolts.  All billet parts, 4 bolt mains, forged pistons and "I "beam con rods, roller cam and rockers, etc etc.  John builds motors for Super Charged Outlaws at the Drags and obviously street motors.  He will build to your budget.  I told him what I wanted, how much I was prepared to spend and he did it.  A real gentle giant and a top guy.

They are a "Y" section of exhaust pipe with a cable operated flapper valve that can direct exhaust gasses two ways. You can buy them off the shelf to suit your exhaust diameter. Bolt them into your exhaust before your mufflers and with the pull of a lever your exhaust is directed straight out the side before it reaches your mufflers.
Great for drags so you don't have to drop your exhaust for a performance gain and even better for scaring the sh*t out of people at the lights :evil
If anyone can correct me please do so as the last time i thought about cutouts was when i was on my Ps!
