hello everyone
looking for a little guidence before i take off my old exhaust. Bought this bursch one used and just want to ask a couple of questions before i get into wrenching. as per the photos it looks to me the bolts are part of the old exhaust and if that is so then presumably I need the bolts and nuts to put on the bursch??? Is there a recommended set of hardware that i need to purchase? Attached thumbnail(s)

my apology, IIRC they had two versions, the one you have and another type, rectangular. the one I have is rectangular and to me is loud, but I am pretty sure the you have there will be louder because there won't be that much for the exhaust gas to be diverted through. record your current sound with your phone and then play it back after you got this one installed. spray PB Blaster or WD-40 on the rusty threads of the existing nuts and bolts. Hardest part of the job will be finagling the thing in place before you tighten up all of the bolts. I use Permatex gasket anti-seize, in case I want to change back the exhaust to something else.

IYHO what exhaust would you recommend for my 73, I am looking for something that sounds great not too loud, but then again if it is a little loud maybe that is a good thing, my car is not a DD and at some point i do want to build in a bit of performance... -jp- |
