V-band to flex section FTL. It was just too much wider than the exhaust tubing. It beat horribly on the floor of the car and it was far too low to the ground.
Or maybe it's just low car FTL. The v-band wasn't going to work regardless. I almost tore it off on the highway.
So I took it out and replaced with a stainless band clamp and some extra tubing. Here it is routed to the back of the car. Next time it's off the ground I'll get some better shots.
Here's the bay all finished up though it's coming back apart tomorrow for a new intake/exhaust gasket and new carb gaskets. I was hoping to find a way to route the PCV hoses without using my air filter box since eventually I'll be using DCOEs but either that or an intake leak is causing some smoke. I know it has an intake leak for sure because I have the carbs set super rich to get it running at all. Once I put the new gaskets on I'll see if my smoke issue is really being caused by the PCV hoses. The clean intake and header made a lot of difference in how the bay looks.
Here's a ****ty video.

The drone is preeeety terrible so right now the back seat is out (for stereo and speaker installation) and I'm going to add some FatMat back there and on the rear deck. I don't really care how loud it is outside the car. I just want to be comfortable in there
