Default Monterey Historics Exhaust Note
Did anyone in attendance at the Monterey Reunion notice the different exhaust note on the Red 289 #81 that finished 2nd? It had a totally different high pitched note. After checking things out it turns out the exhaust used a high tech Tri Y set up. 2 pairs (per bank)which were previously joined into merge collectors, joined into merge collectors again then a very short megaphone (for scavanging) then dumped under the car. The sidepipes were non functional.
