I have a set of Reds headers and Smithy's mufflers. The headers are 1 3/4 and the mufflers are 2". I would rather run 1 3/4 all the way with reducers on mufflers for easy install
Other option is increase to 2" at header and run 2 all the way. Your thoughts Tim |

I think 1 3/4" will give a higher pitched sound [ & fit better], 2" will have a deeper sound.

Thanks----I want to over the rear axle then under the rear spring so 1 3/4 will be easier to work with.

Keep in mind the radius rods will go up and down, I didn't and had to modify the tail pipes to move them after the pipes were bent. Zeke

My E-Brake cables are higher than the radius rods. The biggest problem is the rear axle housing travel.

I went with 2" all the way both sides and had a lot of fun getting everything in place without touching the frame anywhere or interfering with the radius rods. I'll see if I can find any pictures of it and post them.
