Hi all, I took a look at the rear of the body, which is not yet on the frame. Then I realize that me question was useless, as the exhaust can only bend over the axle between the frame and the shock b
anybody ever thought of doing a custom side exhaust??.....Chris --Original Message-- From: owner-datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net [mailto:owner-datsun-roadsters@autox.team.net]On Behalf Of The Belgian
There's a 289ci Ford V8 Datsun 2000 currently for sale in England which has headers passing through both inner wings and an exhaust coming out through neat holes in the sills (you call them rocker p
If you can fit the muffler between the X frame it shouldn't be too hard to do. I thought about it and mentioned it to the muffler guy but he advised against it for a variety of reasons, the most impo
I have thought of it. Many moons ago I owned a 66 corvette that had a side exhaust. I liked it alot on that car. I have wondered how it could work on a roadster. Thats as far as I have taken it. Guy
Back in '91 or so I saw a very nice '66 1600 with side exhuast in Sacramento, CA. I didn't get a close look at it but the exhaust exited a little behind the driver's door. I've wondered if that car i

My friend Ed Unkel has a car with that setup and frankly, it looks ridiculous, even he agrees. The roadster is too small or the pipes are too big to give a good visual balance. Additionally, as I sa
I had a number of exhaust configurations on my roadster and on a 66 Mustang. The Mustang first had glass packs bolted to the headers - nothing else. It was VERY loud (sounded cool though in a High Sc
I have to disagree with that assessment. The 427 cobra is within 1/5 inch in wheelbase, about 6 inches in width and just about the same length if I recall. Given that the dimensions are so close, it
I agree. The shape of the Roadster's flanks do not lend itself to sidepipes. The Corvette's doors and rockers were curved under not straight down like the Roadster and side pipes were an OEM option
Come on! They look soooo cool. So ya can't hear anything (ever) and you have burned all the flesh off your ankles. Ya look cooool. That said, I'm gonna run mine though a Flowmaster out the rear end
