I am looking ro replace my exhaust. It seems from prior posts that the choice is between FALCON or BELL. Any current recommendations between the two and where to buy? Thanks.

I don't know maybe 'SHG' will come on and tell you where to buy the Bell system. IMOP it is the best one. Mine is a Canadian made affair and it rattles like a tin can. I am going to keep the pipes but replace all the mufflers.---Keoke

I'd be interested in knowing also. I've got the car up on stands to replace some stuff and change the brake fluid to silicone, and the exhaust just looks hammered. It's one of those slightly sinking feelings you get as look at something and realize something more's got to be done.

That is who I got mine thorugh. They sell on Ebay occasionally. I'm happy with it. I just wish the rear mufflers were much thinner. They take a beating.

Here I am. I agree with TH, but the Bell system from Engle is still the best I've seen, mostly because it actually fits when you go to install it and stays solid. I've was happy when it went on, and I'm still happy with it.

Check some of the old posts. Use the fatter stainless band connectors on the stainless pipes or you will never get them appart when you need to. Also use some exhaust sealer compound (Moss) to prevent leaks.

Watch out TH!, some of these exhaust sealants weld the pipes together.---Keoke- /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
