| RE: On to the exhaust! Best configurations? |

While I did not use Flowmasters on my formerly owned '61 with a 390, I did use a form of turbo mufflers (2.5 inlet and outlet) I found at a swap meet and they sounded good. Since they were not round they would not fit in the stock location at the rear of the car. I had the muffler shop build a system from the shorty cast iron hi-perf factory headers going into dumps placing the outlets 36 inches from where the shortest pipe on the header bolted to the head. This allowed open exhaust at the strip. The exhaust with crossover then continued on to the mufflers mounted under the rear seat area. After that, the tailpipes were routed where the original mufflers sat and had the ends bent down just like the factory outlets. This system work great and from the rear of the car, looked factory.
I have always felt that Ford would have been much better to have put the mufflers under the rear seat on the 1960-64 Galaxies. |
