Ok got eveything running , but my exhaust will need replacing, just the can,, i know they are not really expensive but i am cheap so,,,i have a bunch of stainless stell sheet and i want to make my own muffler, i will try to reproduce the mounting of the original 1.7 ,,so I will enter from the side just like the original but i want to do a double exhaust exit,, but i do not know how to set up the baffles to keep noise down , any idea

Oh man, don't do that. It sounds like a bunch of work.
I have a 1.7 muffler you can HAVE. I believe it is all there and should just bolt on and go. I am on the West Coast about 2 1/2 hours from the border. You pay to ship it or come get it and you can have it.

thanks for the offer,, i will very likely take it,, but before i go i wanna see what kind of response i get, i figured out that it would be a big B to make but it would be unique, it depends on what kind of info i get about how to correctly construct the middle of it,, the rest is easy, it is just the freakin baffle i wonder about

Hey yo Freeze I have a Monza 4 tip I wanna get rid of, cheeeeep. It's in great shape. I plan on making my own out of a banana style, if I can find one. (another winter project)
If you want, maybe we can meet halfway or something, or figure something out if you want it.
It's for a 2.0?

Ooo, I'm not certain - I think they're different.......
Anyone know for sure? It looks like it could fit, but I think the heat exchangers are of different outlets and flange sizes.........

It is the placement of the flanges. The 1.7 is different than a 2.0. I beleive the 1.7's sit up higher?

I went on the monza web site and they list 2 different number for the 1.7 and the 2.0,, i think it has to do with the fact that the 1.t has an upward bend just before the muffler as the 2.0 are strait??????? any confirmation here??? <_<

Yeah, my 1.7 monz-ter was of a slightly different design from the 2.0, but I don't know if anyone has done the switch. I heard you can use the 2.0 HEs on a 1.7/1.8, but I'm unsure of the muffler itself only...
I know of a 1.7 locally, but it's pretty rotted out, you'd be better off monster-garaging one together.
I'm looking for a 2.0 banana style, because I wanna weld up the single outlet and make it into a 911-sport style.

How about this, if you can find me a 2.0 banana-style muffler for a 73/74 you can have it?
I would just need something to replace it with that I can hack up myself!

A double exhaust requires a different flow.....go to the "little winkie" site.... www.pelicanparts.com , click on 911 BBS and do a search on "sport muffler". There more than a few schematics on how to modify and/or build one.

Hey freezz, try this.
Take apart your old muffler and reuse your baffles inside.
That's what I am doing right now only I'm drilling out the baffles to get a bit better air flow then re wrapping it with SS.
