Default question on muffler specs

I am shopping for mufflers for my 91 coupe L98 all stock. What is the muffler inlet diameter?

Also, any feedback on your muffler experience is appreciated. Currently I have original mufflers on..


Thanks for assistance

Dan

That would be the size of the pipe on the engine side of the muffler, the outlet dia would be the tips. If you get a mismatched dia. of pipes you may need a reducer. Stock should be 2.25" for yours.

The y-pipe itself is 2.25" so the muffler should fit over that size pipe. Look at Mid America if you want a performance muffler that appears stock. They have some with dual working outlets at a very reasonable price.

The '91 had unique mufflers. If you're getting aftermarket mufflers, make sure they say for '84-'91 and not '84-'90. Some have adjustable inlets that can swivel to match the '91's Y-pipe angle while others don't.
