Dave had a nice assortment jigs. I can’t imagine welding one up that fits correctly without one.

I had one of Dave's systems on my 1.7. It was great. RIP Dave.

I still have a Triad sticker for someone into nostaligia. Only thing I'd want to have is to make sure it finds a home with someone that has one of his exhausts. PM me your address and a pic....and I'll send it.

I can imagine...

Don't burst my bubble, please.

I'm just building one, not trying to go into production.

Jigs are a requirement right after the first one is custom built.

I'd V-band everything most likely. Easier and allows some adjustments.

I've seen the flanges available if I wanted to stay normal at that point.

I'd also most likely go with a single muffler and single exit.

I am interested in a 1.8l set up if anyone has a used one...

I'll most likely end up with a Tangerine complete exhaust when I go big.

I've already got a pretty nice set of 1.8 SSIs and a Bursch set up.

For the little motor (2055) I'm going to try and use what I have currently.

This design looked better than anything else I have come across for SSI exhaust.

Well Dang, now I will never know the secret recipe for mine. Or how much to list it for.

and we make the ones for the two final years of the 914 75 76 both 1.8 and 2.0 had the same muffler/ exhaust. We make it out of stainless steel http://www.autoatlanta.com/Porsche-Factory...9251055056.html

IMO the only use for a 75/76 exhaust is for concours or if you're planning on sticking a turbo on it (bad idea without intensive, maybe impossible, engine mods or stupid low boost).

Even blown, I'd want to get rid of the thermal reactors...

Concours ONLY in my book for the 75-76 trash.

At that point the SS unit (which IS beautiful!) would cost points, maybe bust it completely.

I'm NOT a concours type of guy.

Not even close...

I agree, unless you are going to keep the car concours, ditch the 75-76 exhaust and replace it with a set of SS heat exchangers.

Well, mine is available, sell or trade.

I would suggest that you find a set of 2.0 stainless heat exchangers and get the support bracket and triad muffler to match. The 2.0 HEs flow better than the 1.7/1.8 ones.

I had a set of headers and the “muffler” when I first finished my car. Header pipes were not in alignment and I needed to have them fixed so the muffler was level. The muffler was too loud and I could handle the sound. I was so much happier with Ben’s workmanship. Not to pick on the man. I couldn’t begin to weld the way he did, but would recommend you give your $ for a higher quality product.
