Reds has quality stuff. I had a problem with the left side header pipe touching clutch pedal when disengaging. Had to get a custom pipe fit at local muffler shop. Should have done that anyway as I was putting an 8ba in a '47.

I concur, Red's has nice parts and they fit. When you ask about complete exhaust are you talking headers also? I installed Fenton headers on my 1946 and was lucky everything seemed to fit well. Some people have had issues with the steering box, clutch or the dip stick tube when using Fenton headers, I didn't. Some people like Red's tubular headers better. From the headers back was no problem at all on my car. If your doing a show car, none of the supplied clamps will make the judges happy.

I have Red's extention pipes on my pickup. These run from the stock manifolds to a custom dual exhaust. I used the Red's pipes to replace the badly cobbled "custom" pipes that were on the truck. The Red's pipes fit really well.

I've got Red's headers and exhaust on both my shoeboxes. Generally happy with fit and quality, but I had an issue with the left side touching the clutch pedal. Did a little modifying with a BFH and all is well. I'd buy from them again.

I did the full system on my '36 3w from header to chrome tip. Overall I was pleased. They even asked if I'd moved the battery from the stock location during the order process (makes it easier for routing, and shows how heads up they were). I did run into an issue with the intermediate pipes on both sides, the ones from the back of the mufflers to the kickup over the axle. They were too long, but with some test fitting it was an easy chore to shorten them and still have the system route just fine. I did have to take the shortened pieces to a local muffler shop to have them swaged for new slip joint. I called Red's and we discussed it before I cut the pipes, they claimed that nobody had ever reported such an issue and that they always make them the same. Said they would work with me to get it right, but since I was able to resolve it with only extra time as an issue I didn't have to take them up on their offer. Not sure if that's good or bad, but as it turned out it was a minor issue. I'd buy from them again as they were otherwise very good to work with.
