Any comments or feedback on this would be appreciated. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 4,066 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 4,066 | you might scan thru these post and see if they will aid u you have a lot of choices, some like porter, some like smitthys, some like glass packs, I had smitthys on my 235 with fenton headers, like them a lot.. you also have to determine the length you want, length affects the sound..etc Redryder pixMy HotrodA veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard, or reserve - is someone who, at one point in his or her life, wrote a blank check made payable to The 'United States of America', for an amount of "up to and including my life."I am fighting cancer and I am winning the fight | Pain is part of life; misery is an option. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 52 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 52 | I have Fentons and Porters on my 54 with the 235, I like the way they sound compared to the Smitthys that were on it before. Fairly tame but you can make it loud by giving it the throttle. | | | | | Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 130 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Oct 2012 Posts: 130 | Did you use the 20" or 14" mufflers? Where in the exhaust line did you install mufflers - in front or in back of rear axle? Also if you have a photo it would be great. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 52 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 52 | They are forward of the rear axle, just past were the bed begins. I know they are not as short as 14" inches but the exact length I dont remember at this time. I don't have any pics but I should be able to get some this weekend. | | |
