Side exit exhaust tips. I need sound advice... Ha ha!

Sorry for the bad pun. I want to put those long flat nascar style exhaust tips in front of my rear tires. Does anyone with that kind of system, become annoyed by the sound with your windows down? I plan on using Magnaflow 14210 mufflers, because they have the inlet and outlet, like on AAR 'Cuda factory mufflers. Thanks!

Not sure about 'flat' exhaust tubing, but when the car had fenderwell headers the 3" round exhaust ran along the frame and exited in font of the rears.. it would annoy other drivers, but it wasn't too loud and sounded great to me, especially when going through underpasses.

Dr Gas sells those as exhaust tips and also versions that are mufflers too.

"Annoy other drivers" So funny! Thanks!

Cool. I'll check it out. Thanks!

on my stepside I just put on new pipes and magna flow muffs.

I have headers and used 2.5 pipe *about 3' no bends, hang muffs, and about 3'-3.5' nice sweeping 90* bend/no kinks and both tail pipes are right inline under the bed step brace & edge on fender. would be just right for mounting a set of LRE stacks & all tucked up above the lower frame rails. so no ground clearance issues.

give u a looky see when we catch up again.

Hey Scratch! I would take a ride in your step side to give your exhaust systemt a listen, but I'm still carrying the emotional scars from when you almost killed me in your Jeep! LOL

I think they are commonly refer to as "Boom Tubes"

Not flat per se but oval exhaust tubing is available. Can most likely use it after the mufflers then out the side before the rear tires. Bologna slice it to match the 1/4 panel angle. I hear you on annoying the 'others' as my old Dart had 3in exhaust with turn downs blowing outward slightly before the rear axle. Lots of dust and drumming on the ground. Loud yes as it set off car alarms but useful when a minivan etc tries to merge into the side of your car.

Well, I ordered the Boom tubes, and a set of custom 18x8 aluminum wheels. Here's what the beast looks like now...

Cool short bed.

Nice truck. I assume it's a newer model with an older grill? Was the grill a direct bolt-on?
Post a video when you get the boom tubes on. A guy that used to be on E-bodies.org had them on his 3gen hemi Cuda. They sounded really good.

I like your innovating that air cleaner

Thanks! However, the tires won't stay cool, because it does burnouts with ease!

Well, I bought the truck just as you see it here. It's a 1974, and I think that is the correct grille. It's only my 3rd Mopar truck. I had a 1981 D150 Midnite Express clone, and a 1989 Ram D50... which really doesn't count, because it is a Mitsubishi.
Those stacks with Are Chamber mufflers on the '81 sounded great... even with the slant 6. I planned on doing a swap to a 360, but I sold the truck
I will try doing a video, but I never did a video before.

I can't take credit for the air cleaner. I bought the truck this week just as you see it. I love building custom Mopars! Soon, I will post build threads on my other 3 Mopar builds. Here's a sneak peak. '72 Satellite, 360 6-barrel, 5 speed. '69 Super Bee Gasser. 6-71 supercharged 426 Hemi, 4 speed, straight axle front end. '73 Charger, 400, 5 speed, with a Weber carbureted 6-pack, and hood mounted air cleaner.

Holy hell Hooligan you have some great cars. Also the truck is super cool. When I responded I thought you were talking car. Now that I see your truck I still believe oval exhaust before each rear tire.

Boom tubes came today. Freakin" awesome! Some guy on eBay, making them in his home shop! Not junk made in Chi-land.
Mounted in front of the rear tire just the way you like it!

Wheels and tires arrived too. I'm speechless! 18x8 with 4.5" back spacing. I ordered 3-bar spinners. (not here yet) Gotta have spinners! Tires are 255/45/18. All will fit perfecto, like I hoped for!

Rim design is very nice and should look great on your pickup

Have to say I have never heard of 'boom tubes' before but they look very cool and will hope they keep minivans away from your ride Like the rims as well and am excited to see the pictures of everything installed and hear what you think after a test snort around

Your minivan and snort comment sure gave me a chuckle, and something to think about when I finally go cruising around! I guess my original post has turned into a "build thread" now. I wonder if it will get moved to that section, or if I can do it myself... dunno. Well, since there is an interest, I will definitely post some pictures and my give my reaction to the boom tubes. I finally decided to go old school on the muffler choice. I ordered a pair of Walker Super Turbos, because I've never had turbos, and they are cheap enough to toss them if they suck.

Hell yes it's a build thread! Hopefully you got your truck raging and now can start on the other cars in the stable. First off give us a giff from the boom tubes. I am an old guy and would love to hear what they sound like.

Well, here is the last installment of my truck modifications. The transformation is awesome! The Waker turbo mufflers sound fantastic! They are not annoying to me while cruising, and there is no drone. The Flowmaster mufflers are in the trash can where they belong. I hate them!

I tilted the turbos, so the exit pipes would fit under the frame rails. (brilliant) The boom tube tips look spectacular! I also added a decal to the air cleaner, and Hemi emblems on the hood. Here's the new wheels with spinners. 18" x 8" Riddlers with 4.5" BS. 255/45/18 tires... while they last!

Sadly, I could not make a video, because my phone refused to cooperate. (sigh)

I took the truck to a car show, and I was overwhelmed by the attention it received. I was equally overwhelmed by how the Hemi can spin the tires to the horizon! I know there is not a lot of weight out back, but my D150 couldn't do that with a warmed over 360, 4 speed.

Thanks everyone who replied. It's time to put some miles on this beast!

Decal

Nice!
