Make sure this system is supported adequately in the rear as the
extended mass (weight) beyond the the engine may cause front
transmission mount (FTM) failure.. (e.g., added torque)  When I bought
my bus it had a broken FTM.  I replaced it twice before I replaced my
old extracter-single quiet pack with a stock muffler.  (I couldn't
believe the difference in weight.)  It has been a couple of months now
and my FTM is secure...
