PO put duals on my 65 Barracuda and it sounds nice, but not as nice as the Formula S exhaust IMHO. After I get the 66 273/235 horse motor I got off eBay rebuilt, a FS exhaust WILL go in. Main problem with putting dual exhaust on early A Bodies is the passenger side hangs a lot lower than the driver's side as there's no provision in the transmisison support on the pass side as is on the driver's side. Easily remedied with a cut-off wheel and welder to modify yours or buy one from Layson's at an exorbitant price (NOT!).

That looks intriguing. I need to hear one running. I was surprised it wasn't a dual exhaust. Would it be unnecessary to have a dual system? Would dual pipes drop back pressure too much?thanks JimFrom: "Don H." <mopar4me@xxxxxxxxxxx> Reply-To: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx To: 1962to1965mopars@xxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: What's a good-sounding 273 exhaust?

It's a single pipe exhaust but the pipe is pretty big if I recall right, 3" maybe? Someone was reproducing the "S" muffler last I looked, but not the resonator tip at the end of the pipe. Is that available now too? Thanks, Gary H. Don H. wrote: ...After I get the new motor built for it (a genuine 273/235 horse motor), my plan is to do a Formula S exhaust system.
