You could make an epoxy die and go to town getting rich! I still have a used one that could make the sample.

I did the same kind of work on my 69 340 Dart long ago. Hack saw and few wrenches and they fit great. In the trash can.

Here is an expensive but cool way to get silence and loudness! When closed and quiet: no resonation, no roar, no noise that bothers you inside. When open: they roar and resonate and cackle and snarl and are pretty obnoxious like most chambered mufflers are. 10 dBA difference across the...

Sound like the old Purple Shaft HEMI grind we put in then took out after finding out how poorly and sluggish it drove in our conditions. P3690213 was it?

Those are 409 stainless and for sure, 304 stainless would be tougher but significantly more expensive if they are still American made.

With those being straight header mufflers (they look like anyway), wonder if the pulses out and back in are hard on them? They have no support inside so if the engine's exhaust is pounding hard, the negative can happen too? They are not very thick wall but man, I am not sure.

There is no sound control in some aftermarket mufflers like the original mufflers will give and without resonators, it could be a beast with that big engine. The muffler volume is needed to get the sound levels down and who knows what the non OEM mufflers are like inside. Resonators were an...

Cal, I looked at your Jensen factory style exhaust and it looks like you have zero room to play under it. I'd be sure it has the OEM mufflers (2" in and out I think??) and the factory resonators at the end and not just empty cans. I am sure there are some round mufflers that might fit (like...

Guessing it may be a 5.0 from BM???

See if you can find a Dr. Gas X-type Crossover around there. I know he sold some overseas. They will smooth the exhaust tone but not sure the owner will be able to tell inside as much. Maybe I missed it but what mufflers do they use?

If anyone is after one, I just got two more. Had to order some other Car Tech books so had them ship me two spares to minimize the ever increasing shipping costs. These will cost about the same as Amazon, around $36 with shipping using Media Mail.

Please check that bottom lever to be sure it is the short one. The long one will cause you lots of issues unless you redrill it.

Here is a shot of AAs 340 setup. It is dead right on.

May be the same kind of rod. We modified a 2 barrel one to work with the 340 bracket and the other two barrel parts we had.

Poor weld job but it was hurried; you can see how much was added to fit the spacer and the Air Gap.
