stacks look good, but it depend wot sort of driving you want to do. i considered stacks for my 79 series, but after sum thought worked out that they wouldn't last very long in the bush,... i have clearance issues as it is and i would simply rip them off same as driving lights on the rear bar, already torn off a snorkel and snapped plenty of arials.

i was thinking about putting stacks on my 75 series ute, but i have been told with the 4l 2h, it may also loose some power and torque. Is this correct?

If the engine pipe remains around 2.25-2.5" then i can't see it making any difference.

I ran extractors on a 2H which killed the low down torque but did seem to let it rev a little more freely (a mute point given 2H's don't make any power up there anyway)

the 2h doesnt have much to start with, mainly you loose power if the pipe is to large, also have been told they work better as a straight through as there is no restrictions and it allows it to push air out and up quiker? is that tru


where can you buy the heat shield and flaps for top for em like on the trucks?
just thinking of putting one on my 47 ute :finger:
cheers
