[QUOTE="iismet, post: 15902347, member: 15250"] Some progress [ATTACH=full]1486679[/ATTACH] We've looked at a lot of options and have decided to hard mount to the door sill. The engine is hard mounted so we are going to weld in a flex coupler at the head of the side pipe. Our thinking is we'll break it or we won't. [ATTACH=full]1486680[/ATTACH] We are fabbing brackets out of 16 gauge (.062) steel that will attach to the sill. The vertical straps bolt to the brackets. We will gusset the brackets and tack weld the nuts to the back side for ease of maintenance. The mufflers have to be periodically re-packed. [ATTACH=full]1486681[/ATTACH] We moved the assembly outboard providing .250 clearance at the tangency point of the muffler and the lower sill wall. This requires new rockers and outboard floor. The new rocker wall will need to be pushed outboard 1.250. The floor will need to be widened accordingly. [ATTACH=full]1486682[/ATTACH] chr [/QUOTE]
