Reply to "GTS exhaust tips for 1974, which way do they Point?"

Hey Mark.
How are you? Sounds like a good score with that Stroker kit. Where do you keep it? Perhaps under the bed so that you sleep REALLY well at night. Does the wife know it's there? Personally I would do the same, but I don't think I would tell my girl.
The new GTS exhaust, the tips hit the bottom of the bumper. the bend after the header collector hits the wheel housing "pipe" and the the actual muffler "Can", that would be the part that does the muffling, hits the diagonal channal that you see to the rear of the inner wheel well when you look into the passenger side wheel well, it's behind to the rear of the wheel. It's the channel that runs lower right to upper left, at the top of the upper left it joins the horizontal structural channel that most people use to sit the wiring loom on top of when they move the loom for the rear tail lights from inside the engine compartment to the wheel well. The other "odd" thing is that the muff to collector flanges just about mate up correctly, but not quite flush to one another, but the muff and pipe hit in the fore mentioned places. It leaves me with the impression that these pipes fit a pre-L split bumper type car.
And hey I do know to expect a bit of "Fitting" with any new exhaust system, but this is way more than I could expect. In fact I was thinking about taking it to a pretty good go fast shop to have them fit it for me, but I stopped that thought when I remembered how much I paid for this sucker, and how long I had to wait for it.
As for the Mind train system, when I compare it to the GTS system, that also leaves me with questions. but thats another topic.
Hey are you going to make it to MoJo's EPA BBQ?

What do you think.......Doug.H
