Hi Jim,
 
I have 2 chamber Flowmasters on my 76 Vette with the stock ram horn exhaust
manifolds.  I have a .wav if you want to hear it.

Subject: [Chevelle-List] Anybody running Flowmaster mufflers behind stock
exhaust manifolds and header pipes?

Is anybody out there running Flowmaster 2-chamber or 3-chamber mufflers and
tailpipes behind stock exhaust manifolds and header pipes?   
 
After taking a detour last week to order a new gas tank & the accompanying
h/w, I'm back to thinking about a new exhaust system.  When I got my new
Year One catalog in the mail with my gas tank bolt shipmen over the weekend,
I noticed that the catalog lists the stock muffler dimensions as 25" overall
length with a 21" case length, whereas the Flowmaster 3-chamber dimensions
are 22" overall & 16" case and the 2-chamber dimensions are 19" overall &
13" case.
 
Given that the Flowmaster mufflers are "shorter" than stock mufflers and the
Flowmaster tailpipes claim to be the same length and bend footprints as
stock tailpipes, I'm wondering if I'd be able to connect a set of Flowmaster
mufflers and tailpipes directly to my stock 80" header pipes or whether I'll
need some sort of "extensions" (to get the muflers to sit far enough back so
that the tailpipes will loop over the rear properly).
 
(I realize that a muffler shop could properly rig up something with no
sweat, but I was hoping that I could just buy all "off-the-shelf" parts and
be able to assemble everything right out of the box without needing any
special bending or welding tools).
 
If anybody has any experience or thoughts on this, I'd appreciate hearing
them!
