1968 Closest to NOS muffler?

[classicsguy]

What brand of muffler will be closer to an NOS muffler in a C-code car? I wonder what is accepted by MCA? Anybody knows?

Saw this on e bay:http://cgi.ebay.com/1967-68-69-70-F...s=Year:1968|Model:Mustang&hash=item2a1020c106

Two weeks before the AACA Grand National I went over my car and found my muffler rusted the length of the muffler. I called C J they didn't have one. Somebody referred me to a guy that deals with Shelbys and he had an orginal muffler but it was a 69 I used it any way.

Speaking as a MCA gold cad judge Scott Fullers reproduction parts are nothing short of amazing. I have been looking a duel exhaust syestem from Scott and I want it real bad but the only thing stoping me from ordering it is the $2400.00. The last syestem I used was around $400.00 and I was very disapointed in the fit and correctness. I guess you can buy a part that can buy a part that can be made to work or pay the price for a part that was made to fit. Marty

Quality costs. Worth every penny

First I'm not sure of how close a NOS/service replacement muffler would be to original. It really depends on the one you found since some are pretty generic.

With that said I not sure (don't think so) that Scott is making a single exhaust transverse muffler. With that possibility I thing you need to shop the muffler suppliers and find one that fits the original measurements, without any adapters and such, hopefully coming up with one with no stamping/writing (a non name) on the body of the muffler.

Sorry Classic guy I forgot that you were looking for single exhaust. Jeff is right I do not think Scott has it yet. You might check with NPD and see what their muffler looks like. Marty

Thanks Marty,I did not see the single exhaust in the Scott drake link. did you take a look at the e bay link I posted? I don't know if that is the correct one.

Yes I looked at it, as Jeff said it is hard to tell if it is close to the orginial but does have the Ford logo. I think I would want one that looked newer, you will never get the oxidation off that one. Marty
