Default Anyone have pictures of their dual exhaust in a 1934 frame?

I have a 1934, 5 window coupe with a mostly stock engine / trans / rear end, and want to convert it to dual exhaust (headers): I would like to see any ones pictures of their frame with the exhaust system completed to see the how & where you ran the pipes & placed the mufflers. This is a completed car with the body on the frame, so I need to do all of this from beneath the car. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Steve

This is a 1936, but something I found when thinking about installing duals. I assume it would be similar to what you'd need unless you relocate the battery



If you right click you can open the image in a new tab. Not sure why I can't get picture to post

This is a 34 P/U same frame. I converted to a 6 volt Optima, Elongated
the hole in the cross member on the left like the one the right pipe
comes through. With the Optima there is room between the frame and
Optima to keep the pipe far enough from the battery and the fuel line
to keep both from getting hot. G.M.

How about the back end, did you go thru the frame holes?

The second picture shows the pipes going back through the hole
in cross member in the position of the stock pipes. I made the flat
bar they sit on with some stock clamp/rubber mounted pipe support.
