Tailpipe question
I'm putting a flowmaster, it has one in and two out. (Right now just have one stock pipe after the muffler) I'll be buying new tailpipes, either ones that turn out behind the tire, or ones that go all the way out under ther bumper. The local auto parts place (Autozone) lists tail pipes, one for left, one for right, they don't stock them but can get them in a day or two.
Obviously the passenger side pipe has to be bent to route back to the driver side since there will only be one flowmaster. Seems like they would have two listings for the passenger tailpipe, one for one muffler with two outs (like the flowmaster) and another for a true dual setup that actually has a second muffler on the passenger side. Guess I got a 50/50 chance, but if I get them to order the passenger tailpipe, you think it will be bent for one muffler with 2 outs on the driver side, or bent for true duals looking for a muffler on the passenger side? EDIT: The guy at the parts store just pointed out something I didn't think about. His part will be a stock replacement for what ever was there to begin with for that vehicle. Guess that clarifies and changes my question. So, in 84, off the assembly line, did some have the 'dual tailpipe' set up? Was there a factory one-in-two-out muffler? I'm now thinking there were no true 'dual exhaust' systems off the line, with the emissions requirements, they just put one cat, one muffler, and maybe just offered a choice of one or two outputs/tailpipes off the one muffler?
