I need some direction for findind exhaust for my lowered 55. The ones i have now are flat and leak so i want to change them out. Any ideas?
A good local muffler shop should be able to make a new exhaust that will meet your requirements. Kael
Too bad your not closer, I do exhaust on lowered stuff all the time. Shouldn't be any more difficult than on a regular car.
Don't just "buy" an exhaust system. Go have the best shop you can find install it. It has way to much importance in how your car runs and sounds to go generic.
Just be sure to tuck the pipes as tight to the floor as possible... I had to chop the long tube headers on my 56 Chevy 7,5 inches and they still touch the ground when the airbags are completely deflated... another problem was the rear end... 4 link, airbags, shocks, no room for exahsut tubing, because if it would fit in the low position it would touch or hit in high or drive.... So I crossed the rear end outside the framerails, in the wheelwell, very close to the side of the frame. Worked very well with 2,5" pipes an theres still lots of tire clearence.
