Hi, Chuck --
My '73 runs a single muffler, without the resonator at 90 degrees at the
back. I ordered my exhaust system from Victoria British about 10 years
ago, and that's what I got. I didn't know about the resonator until later.
So yes, you can do it, but you may have to modify what you get from the
suppliers today.
