[DeTomaso] Replacement mufflers???

[Asa Jay Laughton]

Larry,
For me, I've not purchased them, but I'm sold on the Wilkinsen setup.  
I've heard a lot of good stories about them.  And didn't Dan Jones run a 
set on one of his engine runs years ago?  That's what I would buy if I 
were in the market for them.

The OBX that PIM carried have been long out of production.  I bought a 
set a year or so after they were discontinued and was shipped the wrong 
item.  When I pointed it out to the vendor, they apologized, promptly 
took them back but couldn't find any of the ones I wanted.    They 
happily refunded my money, but I was never able to find a set, so the 
Wilkinsen set up was going to be the next best thing.
