side exit

Postby scruff123 » Sat Jun 11, 2011 5:52 am

would exgaust gasses be hot enough to melt the tire if the exhaust is exited in front of the rear tyre? itl gave aprox 100mm between the end of exhaust and tyre

Had same thoughts scruff....And why the hell they make the exhaust change sides and go out the left rear beats me..
I have a basic home made straight throw muffler but a shorter exhaust system would be better im sure.. A exhaust shop/ fitter may know..
The trailing arms might be the tricky bit...
Oh well, can some one hook up the winch i cant open my door !!!!!!!!!

the exhaust has to exit past the body of the vehicle mine snapped off at the last muffler and the cabin just stank of exhaust fumes. best thing to do is a nice freeflow 3inch or 2.5inch dump pipe and run a 2.5inch pipe with a muffler. i have this and it works well

I have thought about this, but on a wet road if you are blowing diesel onto one of the rear tyres you might suddenly be facing the wrong way around a corner...

Rock sliders that double as side pipes? Burnt calf muscles anybody.
I had a 64 Fairlane some years ago (25+) that had "Lake Pipes" on it. They didn't stay on long, got sick of the burns :-(
For you young fellas "Lake Pipes" were exhaust pipes that ran under/beside your sills. It was a fad that has (thankfully) past its use by date.

burnt calves? What about when you jump out at the top of a big climb in bare feet.

did see a v8 street stock with marine manifolds - the ones that stick up and point back instead of down and under
