I have a 72 that originally came with a 1.7. It was blown up years ago. I was sold a 2.0 with the car with a full 2.0 exhaust.
I was able to get everything bolted in and running finally, but it looks like the valance I have does not fit with the exhaust. The tip is about 2 or three inches off of the notch in the valance. The valance I have is notched, not the one with the hole for the exhaust. Was there an early and a late notched valance, or is my muffler off? |

You could just chop off the tailpipe and re-weld with a section taken out. I bought a 1.7 tailpipe on thesamba classifieds and it is too long to go through my snowplow valence. Looking at the original tailpipe that was on there, It looks like that's what the factory did - the welds seem too nice to have been done at a shop.
