Need some help from you guys in the know. I have a chance to pick up some nice shape stainless heat ex's for a 1.7/1.8. I am getting different information about the sizes of tubing. Some are saying all ss heat ex's were made with the same size tubing, others are saying no, different sizes. I want them for a 2.0. What size tubing should these be? What else will be needed to convert 76 to pre 75?
Thanks, Tom |

914-4 HE's will fit any 914-4 but you will need the muffler to match and hanger to match and IF you put a tailshifter on a car with 1973 and newer HE's, you will have to notch out the hanger for the tailshifter linkage to move freely.
As per your question - SS HE's appear to have a bit larger ID because they are not cast - you may find that 1.7/1.8 SS HE's have better flow than 2.0 non SS HE's but I neglected to measure mine before installation so I can't verify. |
