In my current restoration of my Falcon, I had to replace the Swiss-Cheese looking original gas tank with a 16 gal. replacement unit. As such, the 7"ish round muffler had to go. I put a smaller oval shaped muffler in there kind of at an angle and in between the frame rail, and the leaf springs. Anytime I go over a bump, the leaf spring compresses and touches the muffler. I don't like this.
I saw that JC Whitney has "turbo" mufflers that look like they are about the same size as a glass pack, but inside are more like a regular muffler. Does anyone have any experience with these? The leaf spring is not touching too bad, and another option would be just to turn the muffler a quarter turn to vertical and the heck with it. Thoughts? Thanks in advance!!
