It looks like to me the best thing to do is just replace the passenger side manifold with the S&S header and leave the driver's side alone. What say you?

No offense taken JBrady I just wanted the sound mainly.

I'm not worried about every last 1hp I can get. By no means am I trying to have the best flowing 100% performance system.

And they aren't "cherry bomb" they're Thrush Magnums hahaha but yeah same idea. The point of those for me was to tune the sound to my liking. Like I said before, the overall hp gain is the least of my worries. I honestly could care less if it flows exactly like stock, as long as it sounds perfect!

just a personal thing though

I need to get more videos since the system has had more time to break in. It sounds amazing I LLLLLLOOOOVVVVVVEEEEEEE it!!!

Excellent! The success of a mod is determined by the owners pleasure.

Funny you would say this. Early on during development I actually suggested to the group that we should consider only doing the passenger side! A few people accepted this but most WANTED both even though at the time it did not look doable on an affordable basis. Well, history is clear and both sides were built.
