    Anyone using BB hooker 5205 fenderwells?

    I have a set on my 69 Dart. I cut and welded almost every pipe on them in order to give the front tires enough clearance to be used as a street car. Lots of time spent on them. There are no ground clearance issues that I am aware of, even before I modified them. These headers were on my car when...

    What are these Mufflers and Headers?

    Yeah, you'd probably have to cut the old one off, make a new one (try to change the bend if possible to increase ground clearance if necessary) then weld it back in. If you don't have the tools to do this yourself, it'll probably be best to just replace the headers with another inexpensive set...

    What are these Mufflers and Headers?

    Putting an expensive header on that car will make absolutely NO difference in the way it runs whatsoever. Only thing you'll notice is a lightened wallet. I would fix/replace that crushed tube, and get rid of those cherry bomb mufflers. Replace them with a set of turbo style mufflers, you'll...

    Fenderwell exhaust pics

    Looks like you ran those pipes through some pretty tight spaces. I just hope it doesn't rattle when the engine torques over under load. Under heavy load like a hard shift or a quick launch, my driver's side pipe will hit the subframe connector and make a hell of a racket!! LOL Doesn't hit...

    I just turned them back in and under the car to the rear.

    Running fenderwell headers

    Just running the pipes out the back under the bumper will quiet it down a lot. If the exhaust dumps under the car, it will resonate inside the car. George

    cool exhaust manifolds

    Manifolds look similar to the ones on my 90 Dodge truck with 318. Good idea using manifolds instead of headers. I'll have to remember that! George

    1966 Barracuda headers, fenderwall or not?

    Summit exhaust systems, are they decent?

    I put the 2-1/2" kit on my 440 dart and I think it sounds fantastic. Not TOO loud, but really has a nice tone to it. Hell, for $200 how can ya beat it?? George

    Anyone remember or use "Sonic Turbo" mufflers?

    They were great mufflers and cheap too. I always liked them, and ran a set on my 60 Impala until I sold it in 1999. George

    Explain this exhaust tip phenomenom

    Adam has it right; the hangars will set the tips in the correct place. Find the hangars on eBay all the time. jd340- Can you please post a few pix of your dad's car for me? Also, can you ask him the name of the color on his car? I really like that color, and if it's the same one I'm thinking...

    pass side exhaust manifold

    Your Cuda was a slap stick auto, correct? I think you took it to Firestone in FFLD one day with a charging problem. I used to work there in the early 80's. I know Dean Scortino & his older brother Jimmy who had a 70 T/A Challenger. They own 10/10 Lube Center in Milford. I have known those guys...

    pass side exhaust manifold

    The only cruise I attend is at DQ in Monroe on Friday afternoons. I grew up in BPT and we used to hang at the Merritt Canteen from like 82-85 or so. I had an orange 69 350 horse Corvette at the time with a dual quad tunnel ram. I have been to the Sunday night Heavenly Donut show on 34 in Derby...

    pass side exhaust manifold

    OK. My column was already installed so that explains why you can get the drivers side in and I couldn't, but I have no idea why I was able to get my pass side in and you can't. I have the heat riser on mine as well. I didn't even nic the paint it went in so easily. If you don't mind me asking...

    pass side exhaust manifold

    The pass side manifold went right in on my 340 Dart, but I had to jack up the motor to get the drivers side manifold in. Had plenty of clearance for the pass side. George

    Questions about 340hp manifolds...

    I used Calyx coating on my manifolds. Holds up OK unless you wet them. It is water soluable. Easy to reapply, though. I didn't use any gaskets under my manifolds, and I don't think the factory did either as far as I know. George

    What to do??? Any suggestions???

    If I could go back in time (like before I put the engine in the car) I would have Leanna powder coat them for me. Now that it's assembled, there's no way I'm taking it apart again. Anyway, short of that, I have been using Bar-B-Q black spray paint on the factory exhaust manifolds of my 90 Power...

    Jegs 2 1/2" exhaust reference pics

    I have the 2.5" kit on my 69 Swinger 340 with factory manifolds and I think it sounds awesome the few times I have driven it around the neighborhood. I had to fab up the joint where it connects to the stock front down pipe, but other than that, it fit pretty well. Like someone else said, it...

    Muffler Testing, etc.

    Tom- You mentioned that you have exhaust connections. Would you be able to help me acquire a set of front pipes for my 69 Dart with dual exhaust? I have the down pipes, and the over axle pipes as well as the mufflers and tips, but I cannot find the front pipes available seperately. The entire...

    Muffler Testing, etc.

    The new Corvette has a similar switch in the passenger compartment for the exhaust system. Select quiet or performance. I like your idea, and I think it's the coolest thing I've seen in a long time. George

    Dart muffler configuration

    I think I just found the answer in the search feature. Dunno why I didn't see it there before I made this thread. Any, is the correct configuration offset inlet, and center outlet from the factory? I couldn't find anything regarding the body length, so if anyone knows, please let me know as...

    Dart muffler configuration

    Hi fellas. I want to order a set of mufflers for the 340 Dart, but I dunno what the correct configuration of the inlet/outlet should be. I have been thinking the offset inlet and center outlet is what I need, but I don't know for sure. I am going to use a set of stock "over the axle" pipes, so...
