I have a Renegade SBC 350 with shorty headers I will soon be installing in my 914. Looking at several threads/pics of this conversion it looks like almost all pipes from the header to the muffler loop under the axles. Is there a stock part number for these curved pipe sections (steel) or are they all basically custom?

Though not an SBC, I used stainless mandrel bends and routed the exhaust over the axles. Not sure which muffler shops can weld stainless (perhaps these days they all can), but it's a pretty simple task for a decent shop.
There are quite a lot of V8 exhaust system pictures on this site if you search around. I seem to recall a dual inlet/dual outlet Camaro muffler that fits in the original location that looked real nice. Andys Attached thumbnail(s)

My local muffler guy wants to install a Magnaflow muffler (dual in / dual out). I went to Magnaflow's website and they have a large selection of dual in dual out mufflers... at different price points. If I can get the dimensions of the muffler pictured (make and model too), that would help alot! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

The nice thing about the dual in dual out magnaflow, is you are essentially putting an "X" pipe in your exhaust system that balances the exhaust pressure and helps to lower drone.
