    I'm referencing the tailpipes. Which is what Agro and his mate are betting over.

    2" is 100% correct for HZ but I'll stick with the tailpipes on LH/HQ/HJ Holden V8 being somewhat smaller than 2" and likely 1 3/4" or 1 7/8" as I remember them looking really silly and thin.

    So we were both wrong, bugger.
    Looking at the 2" system that Byron posted, that's what I had on my ute and originally wanted on the van. But won't fit because of the shift linkages.
    Having said that, I would still do a single, but in 2 1/4" to help it breathe a little better. Also will have 2 hot dog mufflers on it.
    BO6 = Rarer then a Sandman

    As per previous post, HQ dual system tailpipes were 2". Single system tailpipes 1.75". LH dual system tailpipes 1 5/8".
