Nice sounding... do a search on YouTube (can't access from work)... and there's one being compared...
I'd consider it a keeper over stock or bursch.. |

Made by Dave at Triad West Performance. I have one on my 76. I like it , but I have heard others say different. It is definately a lasting piece, being very well built out of quality gauge steel. Welds are A+. Check out his web site.

I have one that I'll sell. It has been ceramic coated, used it for less then 500 miles. Its to loud for me. I must say it is a very good quality build. PM me if anyone is interested.

A tad heavy, but it won't rust out on you either. Best sounding aftermarket street exhaust for a 4 IMHO. I have one on my car and I really like it.

I have one with a rough cutout (just cut in the same shape as the left side) for the right side outlet. I don't have it installed yet though. I bought it from Dana pretty cheap.
Cut yours yourself for free or have a body shop do it nicely for you. For a couple/three hundred bucks you could probably get a decent looking valance done. |

I have the dual outlet Triad. I cut the right hole in the valance myself, it's pretty easy. Make a template from cardboard to get the right shape and cut about 1/2 inch less than the template. The extra 1/2 inch is bent inward with with pliers to match the left side. Paint and mount.

Take that pesky valance off. It's an air-dam anyway and everything (but you) will stay cooler. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/piratenanner.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
