mark, those baffels you pulled from your headers, were they "auger" or "screw" style like the circle track guys use ? what are you using now for mufflers ?





Eric,
I was using Car Chemistry baffles.

I bought them without doing proper research outside of their advertising. Most Moparts guys do not like them at all. They say that they will slow a car 1-3 tenths, and that is all they are good for! In all fairness, I have to say that I had mine inside the collector and I knew that was a bad idea.It probably prevented proper scavenging in the collector. Funny thing the exhaust looked lean with them in, and a little rich with them out. This is backwards from what I would think would happen.
The car did pick up almost three tenths with them removed and very little other change was made. I retarded the timing from 35* to 32*.
So now, I do not have anything to quiet it down with, and a system that doesn't allow any options at this time. Guess I will just be noisy!
