muffler kill horsepower if used on a 1976 2.0 motor?
Would 1.8 he's and muffler be an improvement - or - must the correct he"s and muffler be used? I've read that SS HE's flow better - is this true? Jim |

Yes it's true... they flow better than a 1.7/1.8 setup. Go with early 2.0 SSIs and you'll notice a bit of midrange because the tubes are a bit larger diameter (than 1.8/1.7 HEs). Be sure to switch to all the early 2.0 heating hardware! Except the engine-bay hoses and blower motor. Don't forget a new muffler.
