Exhaust system shot '71 142S 140-160 1971

posted by  someone claiming to be Asa Cannell on  Wed Oct 10 09:22 CST 2001 [RELATED]

First the details:

I have a 1971 142S with a B20 engine using a single weber carb (DGAV32/36) with weber intake manifold.

My exhaust manifold has several cracks in it, the mufflers rattle like HELL, and I have noticed several dents and even holes in the main exhaust pipe and its associated welds. Not to mention the constant stink of exhaust coming through all the worn out grommets in the firewall. In short: time for a new exhaust system!

Whats a good way to replace my whole exhaust system? I am thinking headers from IPD (new, better flow, wont crack like a used exhaust manifold), but I dont know where to get mufflers. Flowmaster? Midas? Tin cans?
