Re: 2" or 2 1/4" 327 exhaust? need help/opinions...

I would do a minimum of 2 1/4 all the way out back. My 58' 283 2 barrel has dual 2 1/4 to muffler and then 2 1/2 to bumper. Runs just fine. My other small blocks with manifolds, I step it up to 2 1/2 just out of the manifold. If you run tailpipes all the way out back, they pretty quite.
