How to Fit Corners of Performance Mufflers

Hi I'm Doug. I work with twenty great guys in St. Louis at Doug Jenkins Custom Hot Rods, and we're going to do some work for you today on Expert Village. Okay in this next step here, the pipe got too long and too cumbersome for him to just hold up close to the car and guess how it was going to fit. With this compound bend coming off the back of the header collectors and going under the cross-member, turning a corner to the inside of the car and turning back up, the pipe got too difficult to manage. So he's done a second piece here. He's happy with how that first stretch fits; now he's made a second piece of pipe in order to continue the exhaust system. Now he's going to hold it in place so he can leave the more convoluted front section alone and be able to get the second section up there close enough to fit nice and tight to the bottom of the car. Nice, and tight, and straight, and have it look real good.
