Rather than reinventing the wheel why not got to one fo the Catalog guys a
get one off the shelf if originality is that Important to you if not any
good muffler shop can custom make one to work and put hangars wherever
needed. I believe American Classics sells Entire exaust. another way people
get all the correct bends is take
somebody elses stock exaust and use a heavy wire laid along bends to get
correct dimensions.
