Default Exhaust

Last pics for the week.... exhaust/tailpipe work. The G-ling set-up presents some challenges if you get the car down low (read, little room for the tail pipes). I did not want to run the exhaust under the rear axle, so I spent the better part of a Saturday making my own tail pipes.

This is exactly the same issue I am seeing with my 4-link setup and your pictures get me to thinking. Hard to tell for sure from the angle in some pictures, but I assume you are running 3 inch? I gotta crawl back under again. Hmmmm.

I used 2.5" stainless front to back, probably gave up a few hp by not using 3", but I was real concerned about getting everything tucked up tight. Again, after all was said and done, probably should have gone the DSE route given all the welding and modifying I did to get the desired ride height and clearance needed for exhaust to fit.

Looking great ... question, is that a MagnaFlow SS kit you are cutting up? I'm looking into that kit knowing I'll have to cut it up to get over my Ride Tech 4 link, just wondering.

Wayne,
Not sure about his, but I got cut pile in mine too. I got mine through Ricks...

http://www.rickscamaros.com/camaro-c...1967-1969.html

It is molded so it is an easy fit. Good quality with the jute backing.

Hi Mike, It is a Magnaflow 2.5" stainless system. I had to order some extra mandrel bent tubing with some 90degree and 45 degree bends. Otherwise, I just cut up the tail pipes the system came with and welded it up from there.

Car is looking good. You are about the same stage as me on interior. My kicks are coming from Clint too.

Hi Wayne, It is cut pile... I think I got it from Rick's. Don't have the manufacturer, as I took the carpet out of the box ages ago trying to get it to relax before installation. Looks nice, but unlike the 80/20 loop, it is a lint/fuzz magnet! Dave
