Re: Got my exhaust did

thanks for the compliments.

yep, as 1972 said thats what crush/pressure bending looks like. its much cheaper than mandrel and in my case worked out great. on the bends of the pipe you loose a little flow so i am probably around 2.75 inches. i think a full 3 mandrel would have over done it for the hp i am putting out. with this set up i didnt seem lose any bottom end and the flow and sound are much improved.

i dont know how much quieter the 70s are, but for me, this set up does the trick...plenty or throaty rumble without being obnoxious.
