I bought a Tri-Mil 4 tip exhaust off of Craigslist. But my noob self did not know there was a difference between a 2.0 exhaust and a 1.7/1.8! Well I do now! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) So my question is. Can I use this exhaust with a different set of j-tubes/headers? Or is it impossible? I've been trying to sell it. But if there is a way to use it I'd like to. Could this work?
Thanks, Scott |

QUOTE(jcd914 @ Oct 18 2016, 08:26 PM)  Depending on what the muffler is made to fit, 73/74 2.0L or 75/76 20L, you can replace your 1.7 Heat exchangers with 2.0 heat exchangers that match your muffler. You also have to replace the muffler bracket on the back of the trans mission. There are only 3 different exhaust systems used on 4 cyl 914s. 70-74 1.7L/1.8L system 73-74 2.0L system 75-76 2.0L & 1.8L system You can use any system on any car but you need the complete system, including the muffler bracket. The heater connector parts (s-tubes, j-tubes) on 70-74 are all the same, 75-76 are different. Jim Here use this (IMG:style_emoticons/default/bye1.gif) Attached image(s)

But also realized looking at it that the correct exhaust pipes would have to also be shorter and maybe bent up higher? Just wasnt sure if the ends going into the heads would be the same or not. |
