Multiple exhaust pipe changes (Read 90 times)

Eegore Serious Thumper Offline SuzukiSavage.com Rocks! Posts: 8006	Multiple exhaust pipe changes 06/28/17 at 10:27:55 I want to build a few different muffler setups and figured it would be easiest to just replace the whole pipe from the header each time instead of cutting/welding the same pipe. Is this going to cause issues? I use Anti-seize on the bolts and hand-tighten.

I massage mine gently to open it a fraction. A Gentle hand on the header bolts. We usually don't weld mufflers to the header.

The stock header has a bit of a weird size OD at the outlet - the RYCA angle adapter changes the outlet end to a 1-3/4" OD so that the EMGO muffler will fit....and that also happens to be the size of most Harley mufflers.

Put anti-sieze on the slip joint to help you get the header and muffler apart when you decide to make a change.

[/quote] Yeah I meant using a single pipe and cutting/welding a new muffler on the back end every time I want to make a change. I'd rather have 4-6 complete pipes with various mufflers.

That's what I am looking for. I will need to learn how to adjust a carb and since I've been told here its not possible to tune a carb with my current exhaust I need to get a number of options so I can learn.
