someone correct me if i'm wrong but i believe the non turbos have equal length headers and the only way to get the 'burble' is to swap them out for unequal length headers.

Of what I've read there the same length so an unequal one will give me that nice sound ?

Non turbo engines have unequal length headers. Take the undertray off and take a look. My non turbo bugeye with a prodrive backbox sounded lush.

i don't think they do???
our Classic GL doesn't and looking at posts throughout the net it seems a similar story for most. you sure your manifold hasn't been changed at some point?
