Reply to "3785 Gets a 400 swap, fabbed 180's and fabbed mufflers"

I took them back apart and hole sawed the ends I used a 2 ½ hole saw for the inlet side and a 2 3/8 for the outlet side.



The tips I used are Hooker they are 2 ¼ inlet and 3 inch outlet.





These are the same tips midenginemike used in his muffler thread here.

The tips are slash cut but the angle is very shallow so I measured the original Ansa tip slash cut to see what the difference was.
I liked the steeper angle of the Ansa’s better so I decided to match it.





I marked the tips for the new angle and cut out the metal with a cut off wheel. I put them on a belt sander to clean up the edges. Here is a before and after comparison.





Here are all the parts lined up ready to begin building the fixture to weld the tips to the ends.
