Anybody know a good custom muffler shop near or in Danbury CT. I need to have the 71`s exhaust system finished, gone as far as I can go without welding and custom bending. Thanks

I had mine done a few years ago by a guy in Cheshire.... needless to say, im ripping it off and going to attempt to custom build a system myself. I plan on buying a few stainless 2.5" mandrel bends and some straight pipe, cutting them up, and welding all into place. Never attempted such a project, but hey, there's only one way to learn!

try and check out previous work for whoever you go to...
