For those who are curious, they weigh 21lbs. each for a total of 42lbs.

The Magnaflow muffler deletes in box shipped weigh 22lbs..

Without packing and box, you are looking at about a 22lbs. weight savings. The nice thing about this is when you begin adding control arms, relocation brackets and rear girdle/axle tube braces, you are probably a little ahead of the weight game. :thumb:

Overall exhaust probably. Comparing axle back muffler to muffler delete definately not.

Minus the indentations, length and diameter.. yup look exactly the same. Anyways.. any sound clips?

haha! its like that saying: for 5 dollars the flowers are free.



Those look nothing like the stock resonators.. And I too am curious to the noise.

+1000.


How about more community contribution vs. following everyone's posts?

That actually has a chamber in it. It is a retro style system similar to what cars from the late 60's and early 70's had on it. The system on beefcakes car from what the guys at stainless works say has 2 of those on each side; one in the location as seen in the pic and another pair where the mufflers go.

I was at their car show this weekend and it does sound sweet!!!
They are supposedly going to have sound clips soon.

fyi,

anthony said they weighed the stock system from the h pipe back, came out to 78lbs,

their 3" system with the regular chambered mufflers came in at 55 lbs, so 23 lb savings.

he thinks this system is going to come in around 50lbs for a total of 28lb savings
