Title: heat shield after dyna exhaust change?
Post by grim on 01/05/08 at 19:19:55

What is everyone using after you replace the stock exhaust with the dyna straight exhaust? The OEM shield does the whole flaring out thing and that doesn't really work with the new skinny exhaust. Thanks

I used a H/D clamp and a 7"(?) heat shield from jc whitney. Looks pretty good. Not very expensive.

when i added the supertrapp i just left it naked. suprising thing is i used to hit the old heat sheild all the time. i've yet to burn myself with the new set up no sheild.

Well Sluggo, I've got a longer heat shield for the last pipe I did and have the short one for the ST I gave you if you decide you want it, Max

I also have the one from JC Whitney, but no matter what I did I couldn't get it to stop rattling so I took it off. :-/

I have a 7" for the supertrapp. It attaches using 2 hose clamps. Because of the different diameters of the header vs. the muffler, it was crooked. So I put a straight piece of metal between the muffler and shield to straighten it out. ;D
