Can someone with stock pipes measure the diameter of the pipes after they neck down?
Specifically, right before they enter the muffler itself... or I'd imaging the "piggies" are the same size and might be easier to get to.
Thanks in advance.

Would that be ID or OD?

From the picture, it appears to be the OD. At least, that's the way he's measuring it. Would need calipers to get absolute accuracy. This measure is plenty accurate for what I wanted to do. Now I get to start searching for parts/pieces. |

You just going to leave us hanging like that??? ??? Sorry about that..  I can't find good information on a set of baffles for Cobra 6X6 pipes (and Cobra refuses to help). So, I'm going to get some pipes of different sizes and build my own baffles. I wanted to know the size of the neck-down on the factory pipes so I can (somewhat) match it with the built baffles. I just need to find the time to get the parts and start building. And find me a good source of stainless steel wool... |

Yep... I've been asking around. So far, I can get all the free stainless pipe (heavy gauge) I want, but no wool or screen yet. This is prolly gonna take me a while to find the parts/pieces I want. I'll post picture when I'm done. |
