I need to build an exhaust for a 3L V6 NA gas motor. Need to talk to someone that can help me with the size and length.

How old would you be now if you didn't know how old you are?
If you can't race it or take it to bed - it ain't worth having.

Google Burns Stainless, fill out the engine spec form and have them give you the numbers you need. They also have all the components you may need to put a system together. The design service was still free the last time I looked with the hope that they can sell you the necessary components.

Doug
Contact Doug Robinson at Horse Power Eng. 626-440-0440 or talk to him at the lakes this week end. He makes all kinds of special headers. BTW, I lost your phone number.

Just remember . . . It isn't life or death.

Exaust, easy?- I'm sweating with prospect of building a set of simple ZOOMIES for a drag car!
Doug Robnson is the MAN for tube bending in So cal- there are several others who are landracing folks elsewhere- look in the rule book!

If you don't mind, what motor are you needing it for?
