Hershal I cut off the stock packed muffler that came with the GTD kit and used the collecters. I then had them welded onto two baffeled "glaspack" looking mufflers. They do not have any packing in them thus I could have them Jet hot coated inside and out.These mufflers have a spirel sort of balffle inside with a straight thru tube down the middle. They look just like all the resonators I've ever seen on a real GT40's. The good part is that they exit the body throught the same middle hole but come straight out. Also they have a 3" outlet. They sound like a ...... hm.... loud! I hope I can get away with them!!! Fred you didn't hear it! Come on by this weekend and we'll push it out into the street and setup the gearbox linkage. Fred lives about 10 miles from me and he must have thought it was a earthquake!
