It's time to get the engine and exhaust sorted out.

Plan on stock appearance, and running stock heat exchangers and snowplow valance.

However, would like muffler that has sport qualities, to compliment minor mods to engine.

Please let me know what you have, or (politely) tell me where I can go......

BTW

If anyone out there with a 6 is running the snowplow valance, would MUCH appreciate if you grabbed a tape measure, measured distance from centre (that's how we spell it up here) of exhaust cutout to the bend in the valance, where it turns to follow the left rear bumper, and gave me a quick PM..... Reason...I bought a valance a few years ago that is supposed to be for a 6....but no way of telling...don't want to finish it, and learn it is for a 4

Many thanks

Paul

Make your own!!!

Here is a link to a thread that has an article in it from 1974 issue of Pano...Plenty of options for you.

I didn't make mine, but, bought this one done from a guy in Germany, nice option to go fully LOUD or somewhat loud.

Oh Oh Oh......

I can't remember who put me onto this site....but many, many thanks.

Thanks for the sleepless nights....

All that auto porn, and info, just rumbling around that pea brain of mine.

Thanks to BOTH replies.....

You've confirmed my 6 valance...nice...!

And Peter, what an awesome car! Only trouble now is persuading the mouse to click off the image....NOT complaining! BTW....love that color....alright, love everything about that car!

and thanks for the solution...it will be done. I'd bought an early muffler a couple years ago, wondering about possibilites....was giving up on it.

It's going in for surgery

What a great site and source of info. Thanks so much, again!

Paul
