I had my Fenton manifold exhaust system custom made at the local Midas
Muffler shop.  The manager there is a local street rodder and does a lot
of custom headers and exhaust systems.  The way he explained it was the
pipe that comes from the exhaust manifolds (Fentons) to the mufflers is
called the "exhaust pipe" and the pipe that goes from the muffler to the
rear is called the "tailpipe".  The Fenton exhaust manifolds have an
unusual size flange that was hard to find a gasket for between them and
the custom exhaust pipe.

I know a few of you guys have used the Fenton manifolds on your trucks. 
Does anyone have a source for the part of the exhaust system that connects 
the exhaust to this manifold? This connects directly to the manifold, comes 
down and curves toward the rear of the vehicle. --wayne
