Default SBC dirt track exhaust..

Well I threw a car back together and got back in a dirt track car. Right now the car has 1.75" headers and rules state we gotta have 1.625" headers.. All dirt track guys think you gotta run open headers but since this is a very restricted class I'm thinking about just Y off into a single 3" and keep some back pressure for some low end torque off the corners..
It's a 3250# camaro with a 355 with 4v flat top Pistons, 76cc open chamber heads milled .060, 231/231 .512/.512 106lsa, dual plane intake, 500cfm two barrel carb..

3" exhaust will flow more than enough for that motor. I had a 1983 camaro and my buddies convinced me to hack up the exhaust for MOAR POWAR and it just killed the extremely limited power it had
