That's not a 1970,it's a 1975 . The emblem speaks for itself.

[@hutchinson54]

Glad someone else noticed that too.

[@darrenstafford7492]

Yep that's not a 1970 but it's a good looking car, just too raspy for me.

[@CJColvin]

Right cause 1970 isn't the year for big 5-mph bumpers.

[@jaybattle8300]

It's a shame guy's don't even know what they're pushin!!!!!!!

[@gokomets77]

Prolley told them it was 70 so they wouldn't have to put cats back on! lol

[@CriticalThinking2869]

We used to call The Buick Electra 225 a Deuce and a 1/4 … My dad owned a 1968 and a 1975… I took my Road Test in the 75’ when I was 18 in 1980… It was a boat 🚤 on wheels 😂👍

[@503TD]

H-pipe or X-pipe would make that thing sound crazy good it dose sound mean at idle but under revs and acceleration it has that baseball card in bicycle spokes sound.

[@muaythai193]

leave it no crossover and add glasspacks instead imo. 👍

This is actually one of the better exhaust systems they made. I looked very professionally fabricated. Outside of needing an h-pipe to smooth the tone I can't hate on this. Good job.

[@danielbennett5283]

What a beautiful car. Props to the owner for getting it restored back to its former glory. The exhaust fabrication looks spot on for a factory look. My preference would be a more mellow sound but each to their own. The beauty of exhaust systems is that they can be tailored to the owners taste and that is what good exhaust shops like this are there for. Respect all around on this one.

[@kingshug86]

This is my baby and it’s a 1975 Buick Electra limited landau. 455 bored to a 461. I have had flow masters put on her now and she is a sleeping monster I promise. 225 for life. I’m MR.HONESTMONEY 💯🕶

[@LowriderRios1316]

Real clean homie 💯

[@kskip4242]

I hope you put a crossover pipe and some Mufflers on the thing that sounded horrible bro lol.

[@kingshug86]

It was just a test I put flow masters on her. Sounds amazing now

[@kingshug86]

I also put a different cam and lifter set in her she loop an chop something nasty now 💯

[@dommeister4004]

Car is mint exhaust however isn’t so much. Nashville police gna love my man

[@mikeramon4664]

Only 2 and a quarter inch pipe for a 461 big block?? No wonder it sounds clapped out

[@ns5337]

yea needs atleast 2.5'' with an h pipe

[@Burnz.]

exactly. i would've done 3 inch at and an x pipe but thats just me

[@chiwowowo]

That's a 1975, not a 1970. C'mon, everyone knows 5-mph bumpers started in 1973, right?! Haha! Anyway, I guess they figured with no mufflers/restriction so go with smaller pipes, but way too raspy/sounds like a broken muffler on a really beautiful car. To each their own. I don't 'get' the muffler delete. Cam certainly isn't stock. I would have done 3" with an H-pipe with 2 Magnaflows then choke to 2.5" over the axle and 2 glasspacks as resonators. He'll be back to 'fix it'....

[@AdmiralRustyShackleford]

@@chiwowowo The Olds 455 wasn't huge in hp, this one is probably just .040 over with a small cam and maybe basic aluminum heads, which would be ideal in a big heavy car for torque but doesn't make a lot of top end power so 2.5" all the way would be plenty. Hopefully he had the block machined to expand the oil passages, these are notorious for oil starvation at high rpm. And personally, I probably would go with the short case Dynomax Super Turbos. Those are quiet enough you wouldn't need resonators and would keep this thing fairly quiet like the big slow luxury car it is.

[@markg7030]

This car is a Buick 455.@@AdmiralRustyShackleford

[@roadhog5384]

Damn… it actually spat FIRE upon start up! I had a 1974 225 Electra triple blue mint 32K. Flowmaster 40’s. It was in the A&W Root Beer commercial “Thick Headed - Witnesses Protection” in the late 90’s

[@oscardeneergaard2132]

Did you guys see that?! It was actually spitting fire out of it's exhaust pipe when he started the electra but has to do with no cats on it to be honest

[@jonathanryan2915]

No cats, too old. Plus carbureted engine

[@Meatwad.Baggins]

I doubt that it has egr so even if there were cats on it they would melt and may even be exhausting flammable oxides which would still produce a flame but you would probably only see the flames at night. But it's much safer set up this way.

[@BobSmith-mc7uq]

@@jonathanryan2915 Many carburetor engines had cats from the factory. Started in 1973, this car had one from the factory!

[@BobSmith-mc7uq]

@@Meatwad.Baggins This car had EGR from the factory with a cat.

[@Meatwad.Baggins]

@@BobSmith-mc7uq Oh wow. Ok. I wasnt sure if egr was that old. That would be something for me to research.

[@hutchinson54]

Love the car. But that’s just too loud for me. I would’ve AT LEAST went with 2.5” exhaust. But that’s just me. Awesome job on the resto.

[@austinbass5503]

2.5 would’ve sounded similar but better of course with a lil better/deeper pop to it oh yeah and of course a lil bit more hp/tq just from being able to breathe better lol 2.5in aluminized pipe, gutted cats with mandrel bends and this would’ve been an awesome sounding car!

[@sillyrobbie2373]

It probably would have sounded better without the long tube headers

[@gmoney1061]

SWEET RIDE! Those are the old-school BEAST MODE cars I grew up with! 🥳👍🏾😎🤟🏾😆🥰🤴🏾

What a beautiful land-yacht!! Love those gangster whitewalls. Ya. That system needs a little structural sound.

I had a 1976 Buick Electra 225 it was one of the best cars I ever had.

[@Astonvman007]

Wow! A Deuce and a quarter!!!! Never thought I'd see one on this channel, God that sounded GREAT!

[@g9807]

Everything is cool about the car "EXCEPT THE EXHAUST"😱

[@hellkitty1014]

My uncle has a lemon yellow Deuce and Quarter with matching interior. He was laid off in the 70s at Firestone and couldn't get the Caddy Fleetwood, so he had to "settle" for the Buick. It only has 62K original miles and the 455 STILL purrs!

[@RubyZ33]

The car is pretty baller. Love the big body cars

[@toddwatkins9666]

That’s DEFINITELY NOT a 1970 Buick. If it were, it’d have round headlights.

[@Tat2Dragons]

Yeah, pretty sure that’s a 1975 model.

[@keithwagner7754]

Have to agree. 75 and 76 were square headlights. Does look like the 76 I had.

[@Tat2Dragons]

@@keithwagner7754 If you look at the grille closely you’ll notice that it goes under the headlights, the 76 grille doesn’t do that.

Needs 2 1/2 inch pipe minimum for this big block. And some mufflers or something

Agreed

[@kevinhiltz9626]

Absolutely right! Dual 2.25 is too small for that cubic inch, even if it's not pushing big power!

I'm literally grinning from ear to ear yes yes yes 🔥 ❤️ 🌎 🚗

[@johneary8874]

I'd go with 2-1/2" Dynomax glasspacks. Car probably needs about a 3.42 gear so it doesn't sound like it's straining just to move, and tune the carb. It is a beauty though!

Definitely a H-Pipe

That is sweeeet!

[@dijeanwest910]

Yes indeed!!!!

[@JohnGruber-di3cw]

That first commentator was absolutely right. That is a 75. The badge and the grill are a dead giveaway. The only reason to call it a 70 would be a 70 455 Engine. I had a 75 Deuce and1/4 and the engine I think was choked by the catalytic converter and emission controls.Simple solution if you don't live in a big city.Yank off the converter and replace with dual straight pipes.Then it will run like it's supposed to.

[@foot2thefloor64christian5]

YESSIRR!!!!

[@SIRLEXUR]

1:16 flames 🔥

[@matty138]

What's this set up called exactly? I want it for my 455 as well. Which brand of exhast?

[@CarEnthusiastForever]

Needs a full 3 in exhaust dumped through a x pipe right I front of the axle. That big block needs to breathe.

[@michaelwilliams8297]

122 dB is way too loud for the street, not to mention the slap you get with straights. I'm gonna bookmark this vid and post my 66 225 with the 401 nailhead and a proper muffler for comparison.

[@martint3431]

He’ll be back… Saying “it’s too loud“. Beautiful car! But way louder than a gorgeous luxury car should be in my opinion. Enter, magnaflow…

[@electradeville0]

Sexy as hell, although my personal preferences for the exhaust would have included Flowmaster 40s or MagnaFlow as that I like a little deep base sound in her. Straight pipes are just to flat-sounding, IMHO. But, to each his own.

[@blount99RT]

Flowmaster 40s were made for that!

[@Bosbackyard]

How do you not know the difference between long tubes and shorty’s?

[@jerrylong2226]

Sounds like an old clapped out chevy farm truck from the 60's. Mufflers are in his future.

[@MrMarineBro]

Want to hear the story on the GMC Sonoma with Lambo type doors.

[@steve-o4153]

BEAUTIFUL RIDE. SOUNDS NASTY AND MEAN ID PUT A FLOWMASTER TO CLEAN UP THE POP A LITTLE

[@KsKaylor]

Awesome car but needs some Glasspacks or Super 10s!

[@UsefulEntertainment]

What the car needs is more compression, more overlap, 2.5 inch pipes and a wide ratio Muncie 4 speed (m20). Everyone going on about H & X pipes, why it ruins the sound of an independent dual exhaust. Its like the equivalent of pressing the mono button on your home stereo...

[@donv40]

Nice Old School... He should have at least put a Cherry Bomb muffler on.

[@lindeymanuel4982]

where locate exhaust pipe I curious to asks you sir

[@muaythai193]

Perfect, if it had glasspacks. 👍

[@kevinhiltz9626]

Agreed! And 2.5 Inch pipe!

[@jerryshafer2794]

exactly, glasspacks with smaller diameter tailpipes sound nasty mean, and the smaller diameter tailpipes gives it that badass pop and snap. Had a 400 pontiac and requested it when I had the packs installed, they were 18 inches of music, installed, it never disappointed. After the install, just could not keep my foot out it to make those nasty pipes bark, damn, miss that car.

[@traekiser213]

That sounded so bad lol

[@hatchcracker_tv]

Nice looking Buick 🔥💯, but get a larger diameter pipe, some mufflers, and a H-pipe, please! 🥱🥱🥱

[@Meatwad.Baggins]

[@MidwestMotor]

I'm not a huge fan of old cars but this is bad-ass! Not sure I care for that just loud noise - needs some tone to it with a muffler or resonator - add an H-Pipe also.

[@chicogray6060]

That’s not a 70 it’s a 75 or 76 buts it’s really nice but to loud I would tone it down a little with flow masters

[@smokeinapeterbilt]

Nice ride in and out. The exhaust though sounds like shit. Should have went with true duals with Cherry Bomb glass packs. He'll probably be back because he won't be able to hear that big stereo system or he'll have a constant headache from that loudass clapping exhaust or the law constantly pulling him over.

You are right! Bigger pipe, mufflers of some kind.
