I got a buddy of mine selling the X pipe molar flow master kit for $100. Will this fit on my 1965 Barracuda A body With a 318?? Should I buy it? Is it worth it?? Not sure if it would fit thanks.

If the exhaust came off a fury it is either a B or a C body and your barracuda is an A body. It wouldn't be a direct bolt up swap for the exhaust. Dustin
 
A fury i think not sure. So it would fit my cuda right??

Why can't you guys use your heads and post some information?

What did it come off of? What engine? What are you wanting to PUT it into, and what engine?

What manifolds? engine? headers? do you have in your car?

I doubt frankly that any of this will do you a bit of good. Without fabrication tools, IE cutting, welding, and some experience, this will quickly turn into a pile of scrap.

It is unlikely that the head pipes will bolt to the manifolds, if that is what is on your engine.

it is certain that the bends and curves won't fit.

To be blunt, from what little you've told us, "no" in a word.

Frankly, unless I was GIVEN this stuff, I wouldn't touch it.

I don't know much info thats why I'm asking bro. I just need to know if it would fit on my 65. Im planning on getting them for my 318 I'm going to buy so would it fit??
 
That's a great price and I would snatch them up if they came off a car identical to mine. But since they came off a different model I think the trouble to modify them to work on your 65 would negate whatever savings you might realize. Our early As are tight in a few places, exhaust wise. The routing around the gas tank particularly. You'd probably have to cut, clamp, splice, weld that setup front to back to make it fit. I had mine done by an exhaust shop but I beleve there are some ready made kits for Early As. Keep looking.

dude i dropped the price down all the way to 100 honestly i might as well pick it up.. i looked up the setup and its over 700$.. SO **** for $100 i might as well pick it up righttt??? thanks man everyone here been telling too not pick butt **** itt for that price might as well..thank you guys for all your opinions i already know its not bolt on but still i will make it happen with a fresh 318. ya I'm going to pick this fresh 318 for $400. completely rebuilt. too good to be true huh....
 
IMO, you will be paying $100 for 2 mufflers, as that is probably going to be the only parts of that setup that will work on your car! There is so little clearance between the torsion bar and the frame on the drivers side, that getting even a 2" pipe in there is difficult, and it has to be bent exactly right! Not to mention that your transmission crossmember is only cut out on the drivers side for the intermediate pipe to pass through! There is not a chance that the Y part of that pipe will fit anywhere under your car where it can be used because of the crossmember issue! Buy it if you insist, but it would be a waste of your money! You can get a couple of new Flowmasters for about what he's asking and be far ahead of the game!

You'll need one of my converted crossmembers for any dual exhaust on your early A! PM me for details if you'd like one! Geof

After installing the TTI dual exhaust in a 66 Barracuda with a 340 engine using the correct cast iron 273 manifolds, I would recommend the HiPo single exhaust instead due to clearance issues. You would still need the modified crossmember. The early Barracuda are a pain-in-the-a on exhaust, much more then any other car.

Ahh Grasshopper, it can and has been done where there is a sweet dual exhaust system that can be put under our early A bodies! My exhaust guy, who is a wizard with these things, built a beautiful setup for my 66! Nice headpipes, bell flanges, true duals all the way back, and 2 1/4" pipe! It can be done, but you need a really good exhaust guy to make it happen!

If my car was here at home, I would picture my setup, if I go out to the shop I'll try to get a pic! Geof

I wouldn't pay $100 for two used mufflers (especially Flowmasters), because that's about all you're gonna be able to use.

I'm going to pick this fresh 318 for $400. completely rebuilt. too good to be true huh....

When something sounds too good to be true, it usually is. I'd want to see receipts and maybe pull a valve cover or the oil pan before I paid $400 for any 318.
 
If there 40 style flowmasters there going to be loud & resonate in the cab like crazy! just sayen.

What size opening is that in your cross members?

Thanks FABO
