I really wanted to order the 70 440 system but I can't get past having to clamp H-Pipe together.
They are selling a 68-9 system that is one piece H-Pipe so don't know why the 70 system is different.

.....just put the system on the car then run it over to a muffler shop and have it welded.

I have to say that this system looks no where near stock so a clamped or a welded H pipe should be no big deal.

I ordered and recieved a set from them for my 66 Charger 383. Not installed yet but the pieces appear very similiar in quality to the set I installed on my Cuda from Accurate. Im still skeptical on the fit until its under the car. You can always fall back on you get what you pay for.

I bought a complete dual exhaust for my 66 Town and Country, plus tail pipes for a 58 Imperial about three years ago from this vendor. They were the most miserable pieces of excrement ever! The Imperial pipes took three tries, and still were not right (one had a bend that was 45 degrees off). The T&C pipes had a generic, flat flange at the manifold and the mid car connection, where the inner hole of the flange was about 3/4 of an inch larger than the pipe and barely covered the pipe mouth, so all four connections leaked like a sieve; I finally removed them and took them to the welding class I was taking at the time to have the gap filled in and the flanges brazed to the pipes. The mufflers were generic too, and three inches shorter than the originals. Basically, this is tubing bender parts from the old index card system, not well done, apparently. Perhaps the B or E body parts are better, but my experience is run, screaming, from this vendor!!
I would have a better system if I had them made locally, at least they would not leak.

Mark,

Just to clarify, which vendor are you talking about? The one in the Ebay link or Accurate?

My complaint is with the E-bay vendor, sat1966, I checked my emails (saved) to make sure it is the same guy - Scott.
Bought Accurate exhaust and tail pipes for my 70 Challenger a few years ago, no problems there.

The problem I had with the exhaust was a baffle seems to have had the weld or whatever it was attached by let loose and is rattling around inside my muffler. One other thing that I did not like about Accurate is the lack of weep / drain holes which would cause the thing to fill up with water and speed up the rusting process internally. I ended up using an awl and punching a hole in the end of the muffler on the systems we got from them just to let the water out. It was pretty funny when I realized they did not have the drain hole. It literally looked like my charger was taking a leak and could probably have filled a coffee can with the blackish brown watery liquid coming out of it. I made sure to punch the holes in the challys exhaust when we put that in!

I have a little update for you all. I got my exhaust system in for my 1971 340 Demon in it all looked good. Only one small problem. They gave me a 318 driver side head pipe....it has a much smaller opening at the manifold. I went and contacted them....told them what's up and today they sent me a new correct head pipe!! No added cost...don't need to send back the incorrect part...nothing!!! Now that is customer service!!

The car is all apart now so I will have to wait to see how everything fits but it looks like it will fit...only time will tell.

I saw this thread and ordered the 70 b body 440 hp complete system from Sat.1966, I put it on my 70 GTX , it fit just fine including the chrome exhast tips , its definately not concorse , but still a great buy for the money. I bought a Year 1 complete system 10 yrs ago , now that was an ill fitting mess!!!
