Stock muffler mounting

Post by redek »

Does anyone have a picture showing how the stock muffler is mounted. I received a new muffler from IAP and want to install it correctly, my current muffler is not stock and was installed with a metal strap.
Thanks

Okay, well I've misplaced my camer/computer cable - so I can't post any current pics. I found these older photos on my album, see if they help at all.

Digitech, what catalytic converter and downpipe from the manifold are you using?

The cat is the standard one for my '79 but the downpipe was changed out to fit the 4-2-1 exhaust manifold I picked up.

Was it an old down pipe that was refinished black? Or a new pipe from somewhere?

It was a downpipe I got off of ebay a couple of years back, wire brushed it up and painted BBQ black along with the manifold.
