Cherry Bomb Pro or Flowmaster 40 Series

[willitell]

well it's going to be going on an NA 3.8L, Stock exhaust system, Headers will be coming later on down the road. Has an edelbrock performer and holley 4bbl.

Looking for a good throaty sound, low cost, and decent quality.
I've narrowed it down to these 2, but other suggestions are welcome. Would love to know what other people have used, but I guess the NA section is pretty thin on members.

Thanks in advance for any help, insights, and advice.

I used the Flow 40's......throaty but the one throw-back is that if you like listening to the stereo on long distance, you should dampen the interior. (Or raise the volume to unbearable levels even with a high amp).

I still have mine in the garage. I had a duel exhaust with Pace setter headers installed with two 40 Flows and the bung for the O2 sensor on the headers. I'll get rid of them for outragessly cheap if you are interested in 'em. Shoot me a PM. They are very good condition. I'll post pics if you'd like....if you decide on it. Research well!

Post / Send me some pics, I might be interested.

Thanks for the heads up about the stereo, I wasn't sure if it was as bad as everyone says.

Thanks

Hey if willitell doesn't take them I'm interested in them depending what size they are.

 

[Freddie's Buick]

I'll start with these...:biggrin:

 

[Freddie's Buick]

Here's what's included:

2-FlowMaster 40's 2-1/4" inlet and outlet. 2-collector/reducers for 2-1/4" pipe.

15-brand new hex header bolts for 3.8 V6 Buick, (I'll include one reguler header bolt since I lost one hex for a total of 16-bolts :biggrin.

2-Pace Setter headers w/o2 bung on passengers side.

 

[Freddie's Buick]

Here are the headers a little cleaner......(they've been sitting for about a year).:biggrin:

 

[Freddie's Buick]

Last one....

 

[willitell]

I'm very tempted, But I found a local guy who's doing an SBC or BBC swap into his '81(?) Cutlass, and I'm first in line for the headers... Plus I wouldn't need both 40s since I don't have the money to get a dual just yet.

So Thanks but after looking into my bank account There isn't that much, and I need other things for the car.

do you still have these ? any idea how much it all weighs so i can try and estimate shipping costs to the UK ?

 

[Freddie's Buick]

U.K. may be an expensive endeavor with the Patriot Act and all but I don't know for sure. Then there's the issue of exchange and payment. I'll only do PayPal with overseas transactions. The weight is possibly about 60-lbs for everything.

If you're willing to put up with these issues.... then yes I do still have them.

Paypal is not a problem, (you can check my ebay rating for assurance if you like seller ID = UnityJon )

will look into courier costs,

thanks



***EDIT**** holy-sh.... 4-10day parcel post USPS for 60lb is $207.65 even with the exchange rate as it is thats damn expensive for postage, i hate USPS

 

[Freddie's Buick]

See what I mean....that's why overseas transactions are a problem..

 

[willitell]

Try pricing out fedex and UPS.

USPS is usually a rip if the package is > 30lbs. And even more so if it's overseas.
