so, research time i want to see how your exhaust looks and where your muffler ended up

Hate 'em, car gets hot....Like real hot. Better have some good insulation on the firewall.

I was thinking about painting the exhaust flat black, i was hoping to see a pic like that to see what it would look like. the exhaust tubing is alumicoted<sp? , do i need to get that off to paint it?
about the heat, i cant see why it would be any different than exhaust right under the car but i did plan to add some insulation near the exhaust

My old exhaust looked similar. I am in the process of going to 3.5" all the way also. Using Magnaflow race mufflers. Only I'm using stainless the whole way. Will dump it out in front of the tires. I'd love to take it to the back bumper, but that would be nearly impossible. Not too much you can do with big tubing.

I had mine( 3 inch pipes) ran to the rear of the car, the pipes go UNDER the rear end housing (no room to go over the rear end housing because of the coil overs and stock A body gas tank ) and the muffs are mounted between the rear sub frames and rear fenders. The tail pipes from the mufflers are about six inches long bent at a 45 degree down angle, thier mounted so the mufflers exit at the rear bumper, no noise under the car Noise is good at part throttle in the car, everyone that has heard it on the street and at the races says that it sounds really good, mellow and so on The muffs are a set of Magnaflow 3 x 14 inch ovals, side entrance center exit straight through I gained .04 ET and .25 MPH by dropping the entire system off of the car at the local 1/8 track, probally due to the weight loss, not back pressure (I switch headers several years ago from a set of Hooker A body 2 inch primarys fenderwells to a set of Hedman 2 inch primary fenderwells coated black for the Indy heads,not silver like the Hookers are in this picture ) This pcture is before changing the headers so you can't see what I'm talking about, the black coating hides the pipes from most people and also hides the ladder bars You might want to think of using the oval pipes from the headers back to the muffs instead of the round pipes I'm thinking of switching from the 3 inch system to a 3.5 inch system(Spintech makes the pipes and reducers ) and going to the oval pipes at the same time

that looks good. looks like yours tucks up there better than mine does. i like the look of the turn outs but was also thinking about a straight pipe that i could put those cone baffles in it to quiet it down

Here's my junk Easy removal with 1 band clamp and 1 bolt through the frame connector. Don't tuck up as nice because I used the Dymomax Ultra Flow 6" round by 16" long cans with 3 1/2 inlet & outlet. Used a 18" slip on collector then the muffs after that about 2' of pipe with some 3 1/2" turndowns after the muffs. I personally like the sound over the bullets (loud) The turndowns also aided in quieting the exhaust.

i have headmans because i think they are better than the proparts. shorter pri length, collector starts in the wheel well and is actually, maybe 16" long as is
Roadhazzard, i have the same muffs and was thinking about putting my muffs in the same spot as yours because i could tuck them up better but some have said it would be quieter the further back i put them. how load is your car?

Here is a current picture of my car with the Hedmans for the Indy heads and the non coated extension I had to have made to hook the Hedmans to the old (current) 3 inch exhaust system
