TTI exhaust fitment with a 727 in a 66 cuda

Here's a pic of the one he did. Dude did it with a hacksaw! @65barracudaLA is a bad ***. The pic also illustrates the difference in 90 degree adapters. The one on the right is for Early A's. The one on the left is 67 and up A bodies, plus everything else. Use the one on the left in an Early A and it will make the oil filter hit the frame rail.

Thanks @JDMopar , I have since replace the bolt with this one I bought on ebay. The problem is that you can not get a 1-3/16" (I think) wrench on the bolt with the exhaust in place. With the new bolt I still had to put a little dimple in the tube, but at least you can tighten it without having to remove the exhaust. I might still have the shortened bolt somewhere, if anyone wants it. It took a while to get the fitment of the TTi exhaust in my '65 Barracuda right, I had to cut off way more than they said and I had to shim the passenger side motor mount. They had also sent me the wrong exhaust hangers. I ended up buying the correct ones from a member here on FABO. For the early A-body they are unfortunately the only option if you want dual exhaust.
