Subject:Re: Cat/Muffler Too Low? (PICS)

Hey Jake.

here's the bigger reason why:

http://pages.google.com/edit/tubaneil/exhaustdownpipey?authtoken=bf7f829ed4ecef1d8e7074220e05cfc398183cd4

The arm of the carrier I made, dictates the "height" of the system. As
it is, I only left 1-2" clearance between carrier arm and exhaust
pipe. Any "higher" and it would hit the carrier.

I may cut the pipe (90* to cat/muffler) at an angle to bring the
cat/muffler up to a better height.

Cheers,

Neil.
