I cant seem to find the down pipes. I have the duel exhaust manifolds. Any one know a good source. I want to fire the Hudson. But would like to at least have the down pipes on to break in the cam. Both the maifolds look like this. Thanks in advance...
Hi George, long time no talk. Ok, so you have the exhaust manifolds, but you need the pipes that come down off of them ? Are you thinking there are some readily available ones that will fit, even though the motor is in the Hudson ? I would think any muffler shop could whip up a couple of temporary short pipes that would have the correct flair to work, or am I missing something. Don
Yes,The down pipes that come off the mainfolds. Got plenty of room for the pipes. I thought I may be able to just buy the down pipes.
George, generally the headpipes have a flair that is shaped like a tuba bell and muffler shops have a machine that can form those. All you would have to do is take your manifolds to them with a mockup of what you need and they can form them for you. I have used even a wire bent in the shape I need and they make it from that. It wouldn't be your final pipes but enough to fire the motor and get the exhaust out of the motor room. Don
