Somerville on Friday?
 
Maybe?

WildBillyT 08-23-2007 08:07 AM

Very strong possibility. I will be there if I don't go down the shore.

AliWantsNss 08-23-2007 08:26 AM

Ill be at a Phillies game.

mtnhopper1 08-23-2007 08:43 AM

I just got my install kit from Bowtie Overdrives for the 2004R, so I'll be laying on cardboard.

I'm about 2 weekends away from roadworthy!

Maybe next time.

I think Bob goes every Friday.

I pass through there on my way home so could stop by for a few mins.

PolarBear 08-23-2007 06:00 PM

Going camping and then rafting on Saturday. My cousin would be really mad if I went the ONE time he cant go, damn you Scott and your ill timing..... :lol:

BonzoHansen 08-23-2007 09:06 PM

OK, plan change. I'm out. I finished painting my kid's room, then put the Z back together (it was aprt for the dent guy) & took it for a ride. Damn thing sounded like something was rattling off. It seems the pinhole in the RH muffler grew a whole bunch, into a series of much larger holes. It was getting louder as I drove. So it is shelved until I can figure out plan B. I'm gonna see if I can throw some crappy muffler wrap stuff on it for the time being. Total rig!

Nuts, I thought I'd be able to finish cruise season. Now I may be out until spring.

Ahh I can fix that for you if you have some sheet laying around.

BonzoHansen 08-23-2007 10:27 PM

Bed sheet? Sheet cake? Piece of sheet? LOL

PolarBear 08-23-2007 10:36 PM

I was picturing some high temp thermoplastic sheet, or paper what ever you have lying around

BonzoHansen 08-23-2007 10:38 PM

I got some 5 mil plastic I use for a drop cloth.

PolarBear 08-23-2007 10:39 PM

Once that melts and rehardens it should fix any size holes you may have

mtnhopper1 08-24-2007 07:48 AM

I have a pair of glass packs you can have. No sneaking up on anyone with those, though.

BonzoHansen 08-24-2007 08:59 AM

I'm going to see what I can do with it tonight. Dammit. Advance has some dynomax super turbos on the shelf that might work in a pinch. Or maybe some duct tape.

bad64chevelle 08-24-2007 05:17 PM

or just straight pipe where the mufflers used to be.

bad64chevelle 08-24-2007 05:18 PM

Or turndowns off the pipe.

Ian 08-24-2007 05:52 PM

BonzoHansen 08-24-2007 06:10 PM

Oh I'm sorry, I forgot I'm not cool enough to hang out with you! Do those 2nd gen Fbodies have a big enough trunk to fit your walker into, or do you just lay the cane in the back seat? :moon:

JL8Jeff 08-24-2007 07:00 PM

I think I have a spare 2-1/2" super turbo muffler sitting in the shed. I used it for less than a year so it should be in good condition. It's in the shed right next to my

Add Billy K to the mix too. LOL. You'll be right there with us, you young whipper snapper. Who else you gonna hang with, the guys from the north? :moon:






Exhaust is DOA. I thought the tailpipes wre clamped to the muffler, but just the hanger is. Both mufflers are split open. And show signs of contact. LOL.

Anyone know if Mufflex is open on Saturdays?

Is that a numbers matching basket?

BonzoHansen 08-25-2007 07:30 AM

In the weeds, LOL

See those stupid mufflers? :lol:



Mufflex wants ~$750. I figure getting a Pypes setup is about $400 plus either labor or lots of time under the car. 2.5" with x-pipe. Damn it, not ready for decision making.
