    Quiet muffler

    Try a late model resonator upstream of the muffler

    360 la headers & straight pipe

    OP is confusing the deafening roar that a child hears with a stock cammed 340 and some aftermarket muffs, that the rest of us hear as a low rumble with occasional loudiness, and is allowing the fog of childhood to skew what he's trying to recreate. Little kid ears hear a lot more than even young...

    Big Block muffler choice

    There's also those "power sticks" that are basically really long glass packs that you install in place of the straight section of exhaust, ahead of the mufflers

    Headers for a small block dart with power steering?

    I found a set of those on Craigslist brand new for something like $85 in 2009. The guy looked at what it took to install em and decided he would rather take the loss lol

    Headers for a small block dart with power steering?

    Those patriot headers are ****, plain and simple. Mine got crimped shut by simply driving around a banked corner that had a slight rise in the center of the road. A ***** to install and the only satisfaction you'll ever get will be the day you cut em out and swear off em forever. Doug's are...

    Good sounding muffler for 225 cui

    Six straight pipes, all run over to exit under the passenger door. And rig em up to shoot fire. Time the firing order so they fire in a row. You'll love it, it's a way of life.

    Muffler-can keep kinda quiet sounds off at rpm

    Do those dead-head tubes do anything to help with this, or just cancel drone?

    Super Six Exhaust

    After a full length exhaust that won't hurt a thing. Those exhaust gasses have cooled off and shrunk by then.

    Sanderson Headers: The Verdict

    If I sold a header that required that kinda crap, I sure wouldn't hang a tag with my name on it, on it.

    RB manifold options

    I got the manifolds that came on my '73 b body 440. Anybody have casting numbers? I've tried searching but had no luck

    RB manifold options

    Are there any manifold options for an RB 440 in a '75 A body, that aren't the piss poor factory big block A body manifolds? Street performance is the goal, but something that looks stock is preferred. I can switch to manual steering or power steering to accommodate decent exhaust

    Dougs headers fit..

    Ram/Dakota starter went in my car no problem, but I had to modify my z bar

    Steering Coupler and Headers

    Ugh, not the u-joint argument again. What kind of headers are those? If they're Doug's or TTI's, I'd suspect, as mentioned earlier, the possibility of a sacked motormount. You can possibly loosen the steering box and scoot it over but your alignment will need a do-over.

    not too noisy

    What happened to using the capped dead-head pipes, too? Is that a thing or no?

    Manifold Repair

    Here's why mig fails on so many cast iron parts, and high-nickel filler does not. When you heat steel up to red-hot or higher temperatures, it undergoes phase change. Not just solid to liquid, but also bainite, martensite, and some others. These phases are basically re-arragement of the atomic...

    Do these fit....

    As Rusty asked, who makes those? and as I ask, will they fit A-bodies? Powersteering?

    Header fitment rant, Doug's

    I had no major issues with mine, other than re-clocking the Z-Bar. I also had new engine mounts. How old are your mounts?

    California AB1824 (exhaust system)

    I don't live in California and spent most of my life hoping it would break off and fall into the ocean (sadly, that didn't occur before it spread it's liberal progressive hippie douche cancer to Colorado Utah and Idaho), but I could be wrong when I say I've never seen CA city and state...

    Junkyard mufflers

    He gave me four or five and I think I have two left. I need to replace the muffler on my Dakota. I've given a couple away. I gotta look, I've moved twice since then and I did find a muffler, nib, laying on the street a few months ago so I'm not sure what's in muffler mountain atm

    Junkyard mufflers

    You're going about this a little backward. Wait for half price day. As mentioned, load up on light bulbs, fuses, high quality oem bolts and ohose clamps, and floor change. For what you're spending, if the yard is large enough and your standards low enough, you might leave with all your paper...

    Header fail, stock manifold time!

    Buy the good headers, Doug's or TTI. headers aren't worth much if you have to crimp them shut to get them in or when you drive with them.
