Just ordered a Eurorace header (now European Motorworks).....so now I need to search for a muffler.....I've heard the single chamber Flowmaster that is running on "Julius" and I'd like something a little quieter.......huh??
For you smart-asses out there...yes, this time I am getting a real header, not a Bursch without the muffler (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) |

I have a full-size Flowmaster 40-series Delta Flow on my eurorace header. It's a 2" inlet/outlet that is attached via a short stub tube with the 3-hole flange welded on.
It exits straight out back from the collector (no bends) and is hanging from a mount attached to the trunk bulkhead/firewall. It is still very loud under heavy throttle, but probably not quite as much as the tiny drag-race Flowmaster Brad used. At idle and cruise it is pretty mellow and tolerable. Jegs (www.jegs.com) has the full range of Flowmasters in just about every size and noise-level desired. They are around $70/ea. |

I've got a Flowmaster 40 series Delta Flow muffler as well. 2" center inlet, 2" offset outlet. Welded onto a Bursch style collector with SS heat exchangers. Works well, fairly loud. I would have preferred to use a 50 series Delta Flow instead for a little more mellow sound, but it was 4 inches longer than the 40 series and wouldn't have fit. Demick '74 2.0 |
