Anyone have their pipes exit infront of the rear tires? I'm wanting to redo my exhaust from a 2" to 2.5", but also want to do something different from the normal rear exit. Any advice or ideas?

Anyone got a part # for them? I've looked at both summitracing and the flowmaster site and am not having alot of luck finding one.

Ok, thanks. My current exhaust is 2" with glasspacks. I'm getting tired of it sounding like my friends trucks. I think what I'm going to do is go up to a 2.5" exhaust, and have them exit infront of the rear tires, with either a dual square tip or something like a Z-28's tips, only not as flat, if that makes any sense. Or maybe some of Pypes 2.5” to dual 2.25” Slip-Fit Chrome Splitters. That might like cool on each side.

Believe me Stephen I did'nt just look these up out of the blue!
I've spent some considerable time studying this idea myself too. Just makes it easier to go back and find the info for refernce later on. It only SEEMS like it was easy... |

Hmmmmm, you are still looking at having at a minimum, 2 7/8 hanging below the frame, unless they smash th pipe to give you clearance, then they change the flow as well as sound. How about using a outside the frame dual tip, such as a late 70's early 80's trans am, just behind the rear axle, so that they can be seen and still exit the underneath sid of the car, but not too low.

Stephen, this place sells a longer MOPAR E-body muffler with 2.5 inlet/outlets that will work really well.
Additionally, I have listed another shop that looks to have what you might need. Another place for good 2.5" e-body mufflers More side exit items.

I had called our local shop about this, they said it would run about $290 for everything. He was saying though after they clear the frame rails it would be fairly low to the ground. I'm thinking about trying some Z-28 style tips like the ones below. Only problem is they have a 2.25" inlet. So I don't know if I'd have to go with a 2.5" from the manifolds to the mufflers, then a 2.25" from the mufflers to the tips. However if I pulled this off I think it would look pretty cool.

Ok, thanks. I've got a few things left to do(chrome on the outside and the interior), I'll have to find someway to bust the exhaust though. Only way my wife will let me fix stuff . After that, time for the rear to explode LOL

By gosh you are right Tom. I am wondering if they enlarged the inlet bushing only to 2.5" or if they actually used a larger internal pass tube? Be good to email them and ask.

The cudas have a leafspring rear and a different frame configuration. Weve done a few of the systems like you want to do in our shop and they didnt end up that low to be honest. I thought they looked sharp.

Sorry, don't know why I didn't list my car. It's a 67 Tempest convertible with a 400.

I have, I've spent over an hour today looking at those sites plus summitracing.com and have yet to find what I'm looking for. I'm trying to find something with 2.5" in and out and the same end.

I still think the "custom order" side exit spintechs have an edge though,especially with the oval side exit extensions and tips.
