need a source for side pipes
hllo All,
I have a 72/350 with side pipes. One of them just fell off ! The local Midas guy sggested welding up two glass packs for both sides and installing for around $400. Does anyone know of a source for side pipes ? I'm not looking for NOS just decent pipes approxximately five feet long.
Thanks

72's didn't come with sidepipes as an option so there is no NOS replacement. If you want to spend the $ you can replace them with Hooker sidepipes, or for the (almost) same look using your stock manifolds you could use Patriot sidepipes. The Patriots only have 1 live pipe and 3 dummies per side but they are probably equivalent in performance to what you have on there now. Your muffler shop's suggestion isn't too bad. Cover the glasspacks with a heatshield and you probably wouldn't see a difference from what you had.
