[DeTomaso] exhuast

[Will Kooiman]

You buy mandrel bent pipes, cut them, and weld them back.

 

There aren't any complex bends to make.

 

I have pics on somewhere.

I've been told the problem is bending the large-diameter pipe.  The other
problems are 1) getting my car to the muffler shop with no exhaust pipes,
and 2) cost.

I'll probably end up doing something like that eventually, if I don't find
some "ready to install" exhaust system.

Thanks,

Chris
