Default exhaust question

I want to put side exhaust on my 73. Patriot makes a set with lengths of 50, 60, 70, and 80 inches. I'm in iraq and cant measure to find out which size i need. Does anyone know which size is needed to come out at the correct point in front of the wheel? Thanks!

I have read that the 63" length of the Patriot pipes are the correct length.

I am thinking of these for my car as well.

Thank you for your service young man.
If you are looking at the pipes in 60-70 in length, then you must be looking at the pipes with the single inlet and the cheese grater covers. To use those you will need the 60 in pipes. The 4 into one look as on my car are the 63 in pipes. Hope this helps. Be safe and come home soon.

Thanks for your help, do you know where I can purchase a set of 63'' pipes like the ones you have installed and about what they would run for? Thanks!

The 4 into one patriots can be had from Summit for $249.00 or from JC Whitney for about $239.00. If you request a catalogue from JC Whitney, sometimes you will get a 20%off offer that will bring the price down to less than $200.00, plus shipping.
