I would get a FLowmaster, I think that they have the best sound and
performance.
Mike 50 3100
I am planning on putting a new exhaust system on my truck. It is a '52
3100 with a '54 235. I have a stock rochester and stock exhaust
manifold.
I plan on replacing the heat riser which is looks completely
inoperative, having a new pipe bent, and getting a glass pack put in.
My current exhaust system is a complete piece of junk with numerous
rust holes, and ends just beyond the back of the cab.
My questions are:
Where do I source the exhaust header to pipe gaskets for this engine
and is there anything to avoid here (incorrect types of gaskets, etc)?
Do I try to find hangers, or is that something the muffler shop will
take care of? Current my exhaust is held on by none other than coat
hanger wire.
I would like a nice warm note (sound) from the exhaust while getting
the best performance from a stock setup. I plan on eventually going to
a Carter YF carb setup as I hear they are less leaky and more reliable
than the rochester (which leaks a bit and stumbles on acceleration now
and then). Is a glass pack a good option?
How far back should I put the glass pack? I think I have a heat shield
around somewhere that isn't installed that I believe goes under the bed
somewhere. How far back does the glass pack go, and do I run the
exhaust all the way to the rear bumper?
Thanks
Albion
