Why is Ben no longer making them? He does absolutely beautiful work. Before we had our 75 76 Stainless muffler assembly made, we asked Ben if he could make it, but gave us the go ahead, having too much to do already. Ben maybe you could tell us why you discontinued the mufflers?


Price of stainless became too much for the quantity he was moving.

We have some sound (video) for you to enjoy. I've already sold 4 of these and haven't even got them listed yet. I do like the sound. I did notice that until the back pressure is built up (and the car was cold) that it sounds like a race cam.

You can get a better idea of the idle 6.00-6.05 mark, sorry it's not longer, but is smoother as the car is warm.

Is the exhaust bracket missing or just the angle means we can't see it?

Its sounds fine. My old, kinda krusty, Bursch sounds a little deeper but i bet it weighs allot more. Will this muffler cause any noticeable gain or loss of power?

Looks cool!

Yes I didn’t install the bracket, it will fit just fine with a bracket.it has less back pressure so technically it could give a few extra hp, but we haven’t done an after dyno. I started with 67 at the wheels, so anything helps. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
