Default SPIRALTURBOBAFFLES Website down!

Today I tried several times to access the SPIRALTURBOBAFFLES Webpage. It seems that the page is down.
I have some questions about those mufflers. How are they fixed inside in the pipe? welding? riveting?

The spiral tubes are bolted using a 1/4" bolt. collector has to have two holes drilled for bolts to slide inside the collector

Grandsport, I have to ask, how do you get to the engine in that car? It looks like the nose would hit the ground if it was a tilt up front end. I can't figure it out.

The front bumper is approx.1 inch above ground when the hood is open.
At the moment I cannot access my homepage to upload some pictures where you can see the
front with the hood open!

JCL
So mufflers for my side exhaust system are finally reaching the top of my prioity list, so I'm wondering how to get your baffled system under the stock covers.
I currently have a 3" system with flanges so I can remove the muffler.
I also have 3 1/2" homemade glasspacks with 2 1/2" cores that flow well, but are too loud for anything other than dragracing.

Do you have anything like a big glasspack that would fit under the stock covers and I could weld a flange to?
OR
Do you have baffles that would fit into a 3 1/2" pipe?

JCL, glad to see your up and running again. I was gonna get hot if someone trashed my web. :yesnod:

Finally going to be starting my car in the next couple of weeks. Baffles are installed and look great.

Plan on adding me to your customer referral section.

ScubaJKD (Bryan) This is not the time for that to be down. I think everyone who has or wants sidepipes and baffles, found me this week. It's been non- stop. Thanks bryan and yes you are on the list. Did Brantly Farris get ahold of you about the baffles. Gave him your e-mail. I think he wanted to hear yours if it was up and running. He also has a 69 with a "383". Thanks, JIM (JCL) :cool: :cool: :chevy

JCL, tell him to give me a shout. I should be up and running in the next couple of weeks keeping fingers crossed. Right now I am polishing out the engine with all the polished goodies. Then slapping on carb, stabbing msd dsitributor and so forth. Should not be long now I am dieing to hear my new baffles. Check out the website for the latest status. I am rooting for you everyone should have saidepipes and your baffles.

:cheers:
