Seen a couple different approaches for exhaust on V6 & V8 teeners. Gettin ready to fab a Y-pipe for the SHO motor going into the 914. Want to run single exhaust down the right side, muffler in stock position, and single tail pipe out the back-left.
Curious to see different approaches there are for routing exhaust above or below the axles. Post pics! Here's a picture of the 3.2L SHO motor.  TIA |

Here's the mockup pics for the down pipes from the two headers that will merge into a single 2.5" exhaust. Fortunately it merges on the right side, away from the shift bar. PVC is 2in ID - same as mandrels.
Left side. Piece of 1.5" square steel represents the engine bar. Don't want to weld it until I test fit in the engine bay.  Front. Could have come straight down with the right pipe, but need an extra inch of clearance when its on the engine cradle during testing.  Right - well already see something I'll need to fix. Mockup's doing its job.  |
