here you go. the definitive test if you're told "i'm pretty sure..."

the top one is for 75' & 76' oem style heat exchangers. 26 3/8" to the inside edge of the muffler bolt holes. i think the one pictured is bent, but the difference in appearance is obvious.

the middle one is the correct one for the early style 2.0 heat exchangers. 19 1/4" to the inside edge of the muffler bolt holes. this style of h.e.'s are flat where the h.e. meets the muffler.

the bottom one is for early style 1.7/1.8 heat exchangers. 21 3/16" to the inside of the muffler bolt holes. this style of h.e.'s have a kick-up at the end where the h.e. meets the muffler.

always be absolutely sure of the type of heat exchangers you have when purchasing mufflers. hope this helps.

great pictures, should be added to the "classics"....no real need for the dimensions, if you cannot tell by the picture, you got issues smile.gif

that's why i gave the measurements. if a seller isn't sure, tell them to go measure. that is if they can read a tape measure. "just tell me how many little lines are after the whole number" chairfall.gif

similar... but not the same....

Not the same, no, but I believe it's a drop-in replacement for it.

FWIW... for years we (Betty and I) have been calling this a boomerang.

Just because it looks like one. So if I say I hit my head on the boomerang, everyone will know what it means. laugh.gif

some day, when i learn to add links, i'd add one to garold's thread. here's all the info with regards to bolt spacing. the early 2.0 version hanger is for the 4 cyl 2.0 triad/2.0 heat exchangers.

Thats correct, its a drop in replacement. I just bought one (73-74 2.0) from Engman last week for my 914/6 original style headers. Mounted it last night and it fit fine. smile.gif

I think the difference is the 914-6 has closed holes while the 914-4 has the "U" or open ended hole. I thought I had in my possesion at one time a 914-6 hanger and remember it had closed holes. idea.gif
