Stock BDR exhaust from 2012

I would have thought that this post would have garnered much more attention. I seem to recall a thread on this topic that 'lived' for several months with lots of feedback, mostly about issues/problems with the packing materials used in the BDR exhausts. I believe it was on the earlier versions (circa late 2000s, early 2010s?).

Interesting... I wonder if the glass packs could be removed if I cut the curved end off then tried to pull them out, and then have it welded back. Does anyone know if the glass packs are somehow welded in the body of the muffler? Hoping they would pull right out and are more of a “pressure fit”. Would back pressure be a problem/issue if they were removed? Currently have a 427 stroker with 535hp. Exhaust back pressures are not my area of expertise :-)
