36 horse Okrasa / Abarth exhaust - who can make one?
squizy - July 5th, 2006 at 04:13 PM

Does anyone know of a quality muffler shop that can make an exhuast up similar to this? Price overseas is $395US, and I don't really want to pay that considering what is in it. I'm sure a place here could knock up a custom job for cheaper.

FYI it's an Okrasa / Abarth style exhaust for a 36hp engine.

....hmm....then get it ceramic coated.

I think Rod that the muffler component itself is just one big baffle. I've never actually looked inside one though to see how it's put together, but looking at the pics on this link, the way they've welded the 4 tips straight in, it makes sense. I'm sure an exhaust place would know.

i know the standard mufflers are just hollow inside
so i;d say those wouldnt be much different

just for anyone who's interested this is what a peashooter zorst looks like cut open

Squiz

I am sure Richard would make something up for you but that aint a bad price.
Rich made the collector for Snotty and there were MANY hours in that.

That is one of the few exhausts outside of stock that i have seen that has the correct pre heater piping


PS
if ya going to all that trouble make sure you put a flange kit on for #1 and 3 connections.

Best improvement ever

Squizy, I can get it made up for about $400, have a look at mine when you come over for the manifolds.
