 |
|
I just finished building a very mild 1776 for our (my 16 yrs old son and I) project car here is the setup:
Stock heads
Stock rocker and ratio
stock heater boxes
Dual 40 Kadron carbs modded by Kaddie shack
Pertronix Flame thrower vac adv. dist and coil
Norris 329s cam (about a 100 engle )
carter electric fuel pump
engine has been balanced
stock flywheel
I'm looking for an exhaust that is will matched for a daily driver. I'm not looking for race setup just, a good match for my setup. I'm going to ran heater and this car will end up going to my son.
Thanks in advance. |

If you lowered the rear get the sidewinder if not get the bugpack merge headers .

I have a 2" drop in front and stock in back. Does the merge headers come with muffler also will they work with my heater boxes? Is the Tri-mil dual -quiet any good? |

Standard 1 3/8" header is fine.

If you want to go old school, Empi still makes the part #3300 header. The muffler is welded right onto the pipes. I have used one for years on my street car.

Your engine is not big enough to need the dual QP's anyhow. For a 16 year old kid absolutely get the hot dog muffler. He will tear dual QP's off dragging the speed bumps in the school parking lot.

I think that exhaust sounds like a hollowed out peashooters or the flared tips in a stock muffler. A bit louder. Nice though. I like the increased ground clearance over a 4 into 1 too.

Al's headers makes 1 3/8 merged headers. Also, Lenin-something sells them in the classifieds.

I have this one on my 1776 and my 1745. Sounds fine fits fine and looks fine. My deep sump hangs lower.
