Good to know. I assumed they still offered stainless but looks like that ended. I did one 321 stainless system and never really liked the sound of it or the cleaning to keep it looking that way. I've since become more of a purist, and when going for a performance based exhaust, I now opt for less is more approach with a good solid aluminized 2.50" system.

Hope you find the right sound for that camshaft you chose. I'd like to hear it rumble when your done? I'm a true sucker for the sound of a vintage muscle car camshaft. And I do like the bigger cams with some compression to spark it off.

This article about Penske's '69 Camaro provides some specs on their setup. It's amazing they got 440hp with the 140 cam and cross ram setup.

If you search Aaronz28 on Youtube. You’ll hear all of their systems on my Fathom Z.
Spent way too much $$ with them on one car!

Having built 3 hi-performance small blocks in a row, I'm changing things up and want my car as close to original as possible. I have another 355 roller that I want to build a second gen car with. As soon as I find a nice roller for this motor I'll have another ripper to go with this one.

I've seen a few of your video's on youtube and enjoy all of them. I do like the sound of the 140 cam, but like those with headers and dual exhaust.
