NOS EXHAUST?

I N C R E D I B L E !!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Guys,

This project is hot off the press. It has not been put on our website yet. We are completing the Chrysler licensing and approval for systems dating 1974 and back. We are starting with Early production 1970 thru late 1971 E Body date codes. The dates will be accommodating for those two years. Different dating is available. We will be expanding to the other Chrysler vehicles along the way. The complete turn key systems will be available by the end of June or sometime in July. Resonators, Mufflers, head-pipes, h-pipes, brackets, Q-clamps, etc.... These are what you would have received with your NEW Chrysler back in the day. Not only is the exterior made with the correct appearance and engineering specifications but also the internals such as baffling and spot welds. Your vehicle will sound just like it did when it was new.

Did you just hear that loud noise....it was all the dealers with their 10K+ NOS exhaust systems hitting rock bottom.Great item.Can't wait to order a system for my car.Keep us updated when available and some pictures of the mufflers.

Wow these are great and the timing is perfect.

Great product!, with what I'm sure was a great investment to bring it to market,...I'm sure the prices will differ, based on vehicle line, engine line, etc, but the $64,000 question is, what's an approximate cost on the componets?, or a complete exhaust?.....ballpark?

Great Job ECS!!! The detail is awesome.

Wow. Simply amazing. Although, should I have expected any less from ECS?!?!? Congrats!

Hi Everyone,

Great questions - Keep them coming.

We still have a few details to work out for the mufflers but wanted to give everyone an idea of the direction we are heading and give you a sneak peek of the level of authenticity and correctness for the assembly line system we are striving for. Even most of the NOS items in the market are date coded well past many of the cars. When Chrysler did the final buy( all time buy as they called it) of exhaust it was late in the run of the cars.

Stay tuned for more info and pre order information. What I'll say now on pricing is we want to be competitive for the market.

I'll be in Indiana for a couple of days so don't think I have run away if I don't get right back to you. This has been a long and tedious project but I think it will be worth it when complete.

Keep those cards,letters,and posts coming

Hi Tom.

Any plans for T/A AAR exhaust? I have some original mufflers if you need them I can send them to you.

You won't have any C-body stuff, I betcha...

Waiting on the pre-order info.

Hi Guys,

We appreciate your input as it helps to answer any and all questions. One of Dave's pet peeves is making sure NOT to use just one sample as a format for any of our products. After researching many original and NOS samples we found that even their spot welds varied across the board. As with any stamped part, the dies wear out as they are used so a part made from the same tooling could look different if it was stamped six months later. We can assure everyone that the dimensions are exact in size to the originals so the picture might have things looking a bit skewed. If you look at the picture of the 10 prototypes I posted earlier you will notice even everyone of those spot weld positions vary. Even the orange peel in the paint you used as an example would have even been different on every car manufactured. Like the spot welds, the orange peel was not an engineered specification that required cloned features.

The pricing will be competitive with the reproduction systems that are currently available. Gone are the days of spending thousands to get a Factory correct set of Chrysler exhaust. We used the better examples as a model for what we manufactured. Here is another photo with a different NOS piece and one of our units.

My '71 Challenger has an aftermarket exhaust on it, which I've been wanting to correct, so this is exciting news!
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?

Tom, those look great....even better in person! When will we see the little-known assembly line 3 baffle Hemi versions? Dave

Those look great.

This is off my 71 383 Challenger R/T

Any info on b body systems?

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.

71 340 Duster ETA?

Great to see this issue brought to a higher standard! I sure hope you make the 68-70 B-body mufflers and H pipes. Every single repro H-pipe I've installed I've had to massage to make it work w/o rubbing the body or driveshaft! I'm tired of tweaking and bending. I want something that fits out of the box.

Great news! The current reproductions are not a good match for my originals or my way-back-in-the-day NOS set...

NOS 1968 to 1970 B-Body Resonator...

Hi Guys,

I have received a few PMs about the details concerning the brackets and other related components that will come with our new exhaust systems. We will be manufacturing all of the brackets and other related hardware in house. ECS has recently acquired all the necessary machinery and equipment to manufacture these parts. Dave has been working closely with Steve Been to make sure that all of the accessories will be engineered and formatted to look just like the Chrysler originals. Here are a couple of photos that show the comparison between the Factory Muffler Bracket and our Reproduction example. Also is a photo of the rubber insulators we will be using for the "S" hanger bracket. Thanks for all the inquiries.

theyre not the same

your new ones arent pitted

they look great!

good job

definetly looks awsome...I cant believe the b-body versions will probably be out months after I get my car together.

Any plans for complete (1963) Max Wedge systems at this point?

Tom - We need a date.

Tom - you're funny, but don't quit your day job. So we can pre-order now? Do you have list of EVERYTHING that will be available by June?

Any update on these systems? Will need mufflers for my roadrunner soon. Are b body parts still planned?

Uh oh. Looks like Tom got banned also.

Its exciting to see ANYTHING ECS brings to market, they don't settle for anything less than perfection and it's a VERY refreshing thing to see.

Banned or not I'm sure they're watching, we as a group need to keep up our support for these guys, their efforts at perfecting reproduction parts for our old heaps are unmatched in the Mopar reproduction marketplace.



*I'll be buying a complete 71 A-body setup head pipes to tips as soon as I know they are available.

I could'nt agree more Scott, you know if the Walden gang is doing something for the hobby it's going to be correct as possible with all the little details. I'm not afraid to buy anything they reproduce and beside they are a great group of people.

I checked their website and there was no mention of exhaust products on it.

if you call them they will put you on their email list when the exhaust products are ready to be rolled out...
