Hello all,
I've been wondering what this muffler is since I was in high school. Jim at EASY felt certain it's a two-pipe Abarth, but I can't seem to confirm that online. What I do know: -I've seen two others, one on a car in person in Walnut Creek, CA and the other in a photo online. -It is a very high-quality piece, pretty hefty, and very solid all these years later. Also sounds great (!). Does anyone here know what it is? I just pulled it in the midst of my six conversion, and am not comfortable selling it as an Abarth if it is not. I've heard of and now seen a Stoddard "914 sport muffler" via Google Image, but they don't look the same (awfully close). I can't find any photos of two-tip Abarths, only four—and while the pipes look similar, they are not the same. Anyone remember these from back in the day? I bought it as a used part in 1992~, so I am guessing it is from the 1970s or 1980s. Thanks! pete Attached thumbnail(s) ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

This one is very similar except for the dual outlets. I have one on my 74 2.0 and it sounds great. They're very heavy duty and well built. Have no idea who made these but mine is at least 30 years old. Ray
