    Mufflers for 68 Charger

    Reproduction Hemi mufflers have specific In/Out sizes. I just put a set of Walker mufflers on my '64 Polara with 440 in it. You can petty well pick them to match your pipe size. I am happy with the deep rumble from them. I put a set of repro Hemi mufflers on my '67 R/T, and found them louder...

    Headers for 1964 Polara 500

    Personally, I don't like headers on a street car. They seem to always eventually leak. Why not try a pair of '67- '70 HP. exhaust manifolds instead?

    1967 Coronet R/T exhaust.

    It could be. I never really thought about it, before.

    1967 Coronet R/T exhaust.

    They were short like that from the factory. 1967 R/T never had optional bright tip; the ONLY Chrysler Musclecar to not have them either standard or optional. Every '67 GTX had chrome tips as standard equipment. The tail pipes are so tight around the gas tank. Mine has an occasional rattle that...

    '62 LA headers?

    I have both '64 and '67 Dodge B-bodies with 440's in them. The engine in my '67 is about 1 1/2" closer to the firewall. To accommodate this engine setback, Chrysler enlarged the size of the transmission tunnel. So, the front floors are also different between the two generations, as well.

    '62 LA headers?

    Maybe more work than you want to get into, but putting in a '66-'67 K-frame will move your engine and transmission back. This K bolts right in, but will likely entail a change of driveshaft length. A 904 transmission will fit in the smaller '62-'65 transmission tunnel better than a 727, with...

    Who runs "Hemi" Mufflers? Looking for sound clips

    Check out @Voetom on "similar threads". He says he can produce CD's of various muffler sounds.

    Exhaust options for 68 B-Body with 78 400

    You will have to cut a small slice out of the "H" pipe and reweld it, since a 383 is slightly narrower than a 440 due to its shorter deck.

    Nut in hole in Exhaust manifold

    The correct nuts can be bought through Mopar restoration parts places like Year One, Classic Industries, etc. They come in two lengths, depending on application.

    Nut in hole in Exhaust manifold

    Yeah, I kinda had that thought too. Looked at it again after your post, and agree. Not the right way to do it, but I can see how it could work, if one did not have the correct pieces.

    Nut in hole in Exhaust manifold

    These deep holes on HP exhaust manifolds require a special long shouldered nut to fasten them to the cylinder head. It looks like a PO did not have this, and devised some other way to do it. The picture is not clear enough for me to figure out what is going on.

    Exhaust options for 68 B-Body with 78 400

    Back in the day, 383 RoadRunner guys used to put the larger GTX exhaust on their cars to gain a little advantage.

    Exhaust options for 68 B-Body with 78 400

    Usually, the driver's side exhaust manifold for a C-body is way different than B-body piece to clear steering on the C-body. As others have said, get B-body HP manifolds. They have 2 1/2" flanges. 440's used 2 1/2" head pipes with these, while 383's used 2 1/4".

    Whats the best high temp paint for HP exhaust Manifolds?

    I used VHT Cast Iron header paint. Baked them on the bar-b-q for 1/2 hour at 250 degrees, and then another 1/2 hour at 400 degrees.

    '66 Charger 361ci - affordable dual exhaust solution?

    A dual exhaust system could be bent up by a competent muffler shop to fit your single exhaust manifolds. You would need to get the proper dual exhaust manifolds to install a repro off-the-shelf system.

    Parts Experts and Historians

    I am pretty sure those are the exhaust manifolds that come with 30" crossram setup. The block off plate covers up the port for exhaust heat to the bottom of the intake to help carb operation. Quite often, one sees the intake setups for sale, but hardly ever the exhausts. They could have been...

    Station Wagon Tailpipe Exit Location??

    I stand corrected. I located a 1964 Motor Trend test drive of a Fury 3-seat station wagon. It had a nice picture of tester lifting up rear seat bottom to reveal the spare tire in the well. There was also mention of limited foot room there. I learned something new here.

    Station Wagon Tailpipe Exit Location??

    Spare tire should go up inside other quarter panel, opposite of gas tank. Then you have proper room for feet in foot well.

    Oh boy, now I have a down pipe issue.....

    Classic Industries shows headpipes for 1966-1967 361/383. Part # MB 2594 (LH) and MB 2595 (RH). $170.00 each. Maybe these are what you need.

    383 cars had 2 1/4" head pipes, and 440 cars had 2 1/2" .
