By complete exhaust systems does this mean you'll have the tips also? Forgive me if I'm going OT but what ever happened with ECS's talk of coming out with the desperately needed correct trunk mats?
Hi everyone
Grabbed the computer at the hotel in Indy . I'll try to address a couple of the comments together. By the way 40+ mph winds and commercial airliners don't go together. Though we were going to be on the highlight reel a couple of times.
On the tips - Yes- we'll have them available too. Remember this is a peek under the tent on what has been a long journey. We're engineering parts to get this right. We'll have pipes, clamps, mufflers, resonators, hangers,and tips available.
T/A and C body - not currently on the horizon but lets get this one under the belt before rolling to the next challenge.
Trunk mats - still inching along. We're pretty far along on the material just working with engineering specs. Any one remember the green coil transfers? Feel like the Maytag man on this one.
Thanks for the feed back.
From Indy

Tom, after working with mufflers myself, I can tell you what you did is magnificent.
COMMENT DELETED
Thank you for all that you have done. If you need A-body exhaust, I have a 69 340 CUDA with factory mufflers and pipes. Tom Hand

Hi Tom,
Originally you asked if the resonators were made in the US. I'm happy to report that YES they are made in the good old USA. So will the mufflers and pipes. I think it was a fair question - Tom, thanks for asking. Thanks for the offer on the A body system.
Doing the system to the level we want while maintaining a competitive pricing structure are all part of our goals in this project. We also went through the part approval process with Chrysler just like the originals did.
Keep those original pictures coming.
Still catching up from the Indiana presentations last week on the New Vin side of the house for the Collision Market.
Stay tuned

Tom - We need a date.
Hi Everyone, Were you thinking Dinner and a Movie?
Seriously, the dates we will initially be offering are 2049 - July 1969 manufacturing date and 1960 - July 1970 manufacturing date. Those will cover all 1970 and 1971 model years. The resonators will be available from ECS in the next week or two. The complete sets and related components should be ready sometime in June or early July. The B Body models are next on the list and hopefully be ready by Summer's end or Fall. Since we own the machinery for manufacturing the pipes, we can probably have just about any style of Head Pipe or H-Pipe correctly reproduced. We also will have either aluminized or natural metal pipes available for the exhaust systems.
We have had a few inquiries about the Seam on the resonators. Dave made sure that they were just like the ones that were found on the originals and had it incorporated into the design. They have the correct number of ribs per resonator, are correctly spaced and incorporate the authentic slanted look. Below is a photo illustrating this detail.
