I know the tailpipes are tight on a '67 but they seem to have come up with a solution!

1967 Plymouth GTX

But I'm used to seeing them splay outwards not in.
It just seems backwards and wrong to me.
(And I'm not really a purist either...)
 
Probably a GM guy came up with that. Not to crazy about the tips angling in. I grew up in the 60s and the 67 GTX with the exhaust tips angling to the outside was one of their most distinctive, unique and timeless details of the model.

Looks odd and not sure how safe is it to run them btw the leafs. Why wouldn’t the pipes be run along the fuel tank like they were - run?

Agreed 100%, anything else, is ,,,, just seems wrong
 
Is the 67 plymouth B body smaller in width than the 67 dodge B ?
I ran 2 1/2" Flow master pipes between the springs and tank on my Coronet.

If I were running bigger pipes and could not fit them between the tank and hanger, then I would at least run them straight back after going over the spring rather than angling it back over. It would look much better.
 
I have 2.5" TTI as well and they fit....snug but they fit... Just thought it was funny when I saw the pic
 
So 2.5's tail pipes? I bought a kit that included the tailpipes. But there's no way these are fitting. Plus, the outlet at the end of the muffler with this kit, is routed directly to the rear axle. There is no way these fit.

I’m sure it’s not a TTI kit but the comment on the muffler outlet throws me. You can see how my muffler outlets are below the axle and my mufflers are sucked up pretty close to the floor boards. But the mufflers have to be far enough forward for the hangers to fit and for the tailpipes to curve up to rise over the axle. Maybe all the pipes in your kit are cut over-length and have to be trimmed during installation to get everything into the correct position.

I'll see one of those after-market shops to see what advice they have. Thanks for your post.
