side exit exhaust

Hey Barbee, jos51700, I re-did the search thinking that I had just seen the Dynomax mufflers the other day and did come up with a it and a few others at Summit racing. None are cheap as you didn’t want to spend a lot. But.... Here’s what I found @ 2-1/2 pipe size;

Dynomax
Dynomax Super Turbo Mufflers 17676
Another Flowmaster, Mo-money
Flowmaster 80 Series Crossflow Mufflers 52580
Pypes, sold as a pair;
Pypes Violator Mufflers MVV50S
Magnaflow:
MagnaFlow Performance Mufflers 14210

From these it’s just two 90* bent pipes and tips. Going via a regular muffler and two U and two 45* or two 90* pipes for the exit might be cheaper by getting a local exhaust shop set of pipes but I still think the mufflers above and two 90* pipes would be easier. Oh! The muffler hangers aren’t going to be cheap if you do the stock type AAR style hangers. But you can be inventive right?

All in all, your call but I’d like to see pictured results when you get there.

I think those Dynamax would be good enough, cheap enough, and yes I can fab the hangers to hold up the rear of the mufflers and the hangers for the tips! I am just about finished fabbing and welding the rear lower qtr. patches and other smaller spots on this odd ball 76 runner!. These F bodies lend themselves pretty well to making these "token" hotrod changes. The 360 F body ( along with the Lil Red Express) was the fastest production US car back then would you believe! Faster than the Corvette. This runner is just a smogger 318!!!! lol But it will look and sound cool! lol aagain!
A sheet of 18 ga mild steel plate costs me $60 other day. That should be fine for the loop to hold up the muffler, and I will find something to hold the tips.
