This kit has been designed for use with turbo mufflers or any
equivalent 2 1/4" ID inlet by
2 1/4" ID outlet single offset OEM muffler.
BEFORE STARTING: Raising your vehicle will facilitate installation of
the exhaust system. A
floor hoist is ideal. If no hoist is available, we strongly urge
the use of axle stands as a safety
measure. DANGER WARNING; YOUR VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE SUPPORTED ON
A
BUMPER JACK. We recommend welding all pipe slip joints (headpipe
to muffler, etc.). If no
welding equipment is available at the time of installation, use
furnished clamps to secure the pipes
until they can be welded.
INSTALLATION PROCEDURE - PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
1) Remove existing headpipe crossover and single exhaust
system. Cut stock headpipe and
remove flanges to use on new headpipes.
2) If your vehicle is equipped with a bracket between the
transmission mount and the transmission,
it will have to be removed.

flange (53-1/2”). Do not tighten at this time.
4) Install the left side headpipe (59”) using old flange.
