Thanks Mickmate. I went wth the mufflers under the rear quarters for a little extra ground clearance.

Yup mdross1, you're right. They are Stainless Specialties mufflers, 4" OD, 2 1/2" inlet/outlet. Drilled an additional 1 1/2'' hole in each end of the baffle to increase the flow though.

You make a good point about the heat factor, 427 Street. I am at least 4" from any fiberglass. 6" from any axle components and about 4" of tire clearance. I am using the Sunburst wheels with 255 BFG's on the rear so I have good tire to exhaust pipe clearance. I think I'm OK but I may bond some foil faced DEI insulation in a couple of places just in case. I'm not a fan of wraps.

And after living for years with sidepipes, the noise is just as loud but out the back is just fine for me.

Must be getting old!!!!!!!!
