Hey Bret. Could you post a few pics for us please? I have your 4-link in my 69 Camaro and have it pretty low. Been trying to figure out where to run pipers back and am open to going under. Currently I am just dumping in front of the rear end and it drums horribly!
Cheers, Brew
Ps- have the full RT setup front to back including Tru-turn and a Tiger cage. Very happy with it all.

If you look at the rearend housing position at full droop, [after the new suspension is installed], the mufflers are still lower than that level, so you have to go "up" to run them under the housing. The point is, they don't hang down or look out of place, and the routing is MUCH easier. I have been running them this way on the 48 Hour Camaro [and Velocity before that] for years.
Since our triangulated 4 link rear suspension does not intrude forward of the mufflers, most any brand of X pipe/muffler will be fine...and it will be a fairly simple deal to make tailpipes.
