For those of you who followed my Mach on the dyno post. My horsepower leveled out between 5200 & 6200. A 3 " exhaust was recommended. Pretty tight with clutch linkage. Anybody have much experience with exhaust cut outs?

I have cutouts on my 69 coupe. But my collectors and cutouts are 3.5" and I have it reduced to dual 3" pipes behind this. I haven't done any dragstrip testing with it, but I can tell you the cutouts do cost you a noticeable amont of ground clearance, but open exhaust is way cool!
