FYI, 

here is a pretty good article on installation of the American Thunder kit on a '65 GM 
A-body (LeMans):

I am glad that you mentioned the reversed diagrams too.  When mine came, I thought I 
was crazy.  Any other tips?  I am going to crawl under my '66 on Wednesday.

Thanks,

Matt

Subject: [Chevelle-List] Flowmaster kit install


The good news is that the installation of my Flowmaster American Thunder kit
was very straightforward and easy. The system lines up extremely well to the
stock hanger points. the one thing that took up more time than anything else
was figuring out that everywhere the instructions said "right" it meant
"left" and vive versa. There is onr diagram that says "left side from center
looking outward" accompanied by an arrow pointing to the left labeled "front
of car". Well, here in the northeast, when you are at the center looking out
toward the left side of the car, the front is to your right.

So, there's one caveat, plus the fact that if your car has never had duals
the mount holes on the left side may have never been tapped, and you may
need to buy 2 bolts for that side.

My system is not quite finished because I need a pipe cutter that can handle
2.5" pipe in order to trim the front pipe to size. In other words, about
another half hour's work tops.
