A favorite search key of mine is "reversion".

While "reversion" or "anti-reversion" does not accurately describe the function of the C6AE-R exhaust runner, it does help describe what's going on there. In later posts it sorta became apparent the C6AE-R exhaust was dictated by some poor (conservative) design decisions made when the big-block was stuffed into the Fairlane to make it competitive with the GTO.

The links here speak in recent terms where the function of the so-called "AR" tab has been deduced, and also includes earlier posts which are not quite so sure about the reason for the screwy lip cast into the exhaust runner:

Many more posts can be found by searching for the word "reversion" in the body of the post. Most are descriptions fabricated by me which contain numerous errors, but at the time they were the best I could fathom.
