I am pretty sure Patsnitrovette has them in his sidepipes. If I remember correctly he has 3 on each side.

I just finished modifying mine to fit the 4” side tubes. I will be blasting them and painting them with high temp paint in the next few days. The only down side is they only have 3" and 3.5 no 4" for the big block guys.

I've had them for years, My personal web site as a little info on them;

They are actually quieter than the stock '69 mufflers and flow a lot better too.

I also run 3 per side with the inner tube capped off.

My pipes are 3.5" and then neck down to 3" outlet so I don't do anything, I should drill a hole and run a sheet metal screw through I suppose

I have two in each pipe. I welded them together and added a cone shaped piece to the front to close off the center pipe. THe sound is awsome. I just tacked them into the pipe at the rear. They took a lot of hammering to get them in the pipe, I guess I didn't get them welded together as straight as I had thought. None the less they worked. Open side pipes was earpiercing.
