I would like to see what the triad exhaust liooks like on the car with the rear valance on. How do they hold up after a few years? Do they rust bad? Got pics?

very nice. i havent installed a valence on mine yet.... im looking for an early style long valence and have portholes in it.
BTW, what tips did you put on that?
They came from 3A Racing and I believe it was http://www.3aracing.com/showroom/product_info.php?cPath=21_33_96&products_id=408&osCsid=99ec32ed4086ecbc4a1f81f0db26726f.
I just gutted the mounting innerds, slipped them over the ends, and drilled some holes in the exhaust and bolted them down so they wouldn't grow legs.
I have yet to put a valence on my triad, but I agree, it hasn't rusted one bit and I love the bark. I have some tips on mine but have taken them off...I should just drill them on there as muffler clamps don't seem to get tight enough for them not to rotate. Maybe if I knew how to weld I would weld them on...but I don't
Do you think they apply enough back pressure? I don't think my monza has enough back pressure, and it is just so darn loud. I want a nice refined machine sound. Someone said these give it a quasi 911 sound. Any truth to that?

Rouser, that is a great look-- nicely done!
I saw a really nice blue '74 near Seattle Center last Saturday with a Triad. (Belong to someone here?) The stock valence cutout was used on the drivers' side outlet, but the passenger side outlet was hidden behind the valence and pointed straight down. I thought it looked great in a sleeper sort of way. Is that how they usually are?
Sorry, no picture.

im thinking of making my own exhaust. Would it be good to make the two sides tie together or equalize each side of the motor, or can i run two mufflers, one for each side. I was thinking of running both to one large muffler-dynomax etc- then out each side and weld my two valances into one w/ two notches.

sounds more like someone too cheap to buy and modify a rear valance ![]() i thought at one time a single exit triad was made??? |

So triad will make the tips spaced at any distance you want? I've been wanting to get one but I realy don't like how far apart the tips are. I want the tips 1 to 3/2 feet apart.
Rouser:
Are those oval tips that you put on?
