here is a pic of Service replacement as it has part numbers correct in seam and the pair is NOS
and no dents 1500.00 plus what ever to ship
repops do not have the same sound as I am told

i have new mid section pipes that you can cut off the front of muffler and weld to make a one piece system, this mid section is as close to original as possible and steel
only shows one side but there is two
650.00 for the pair plus shipping
don’t Look at front pipes as they fit 68 BB



pm me if interested and more photos
thanks

FYI
I paid 2300.00 plus 500.00 shipping for an original mint take off from a 70 LT1 but will fit my 71 LT1 two or 3 years ago. These original mufflers has the W embossing letters and it is a one piece welded system. Gentleman that sold them to me 2 years ago wants them back as he has bought a survivor 1970 LT1 and wants the system back. I was offered good money but the problem is trying to find another set......which I am looking but no luck. I sold a pair of NOS W mufflers over the counter 5 years ago and now they are for sale from new owner for 3000.00 for the pair of mufflers
I guess original parts has a different sound vs repops which you can buy much cheaper. But I tell ya..... the original sound with original OEM mufflers is night and day. Has more of a thunder rap to it.
Good luck in your search
