Nice!! I wouldnt neither. Someone I knew had a 71 Charger 383 HiPo. Had a radical cam, functional hoodscoop. Wouldnt idle under 1000. The whole car just sat and shook. He used to take it to the strip, could smoke the tires in all 4 gears. Wish I had that car

Generally they say long tubes give the most low end, but can be real pain to get to fit. Also you have to account for the transfer case in a 4wd.
