Chev extractors

Post by searsy »

I have started making some extractors for the old girl and just wanted some opinions
I am using 1.5 inch primary pipes which is smaller than the exhaust ports on the heads (chev)
Should I ditch these pipes and go for the larger primaries or am I over thinking

That's crazy...not much point having pipes smaller than the ports.

It will lack performance and efficiency.
