Ventureless Posted February 25, 2014 Share #1 Posted February 25, 2014 The bottoms of my mufflers are pretty rusty. Last week I started sanding them in the hopes of painting them. Well I decided that I would just figure something else out. So for now I am looking at going the Thrush glasspack route. For around $50 I can have decent looking pipes for a while. Not sure if I will get the silver and just install or the red and wrap them with black header wrap (I hate chrome and have wanted black pipes anyway) They have several different inlets and I am not sure which one I need. They have one with a 3" inlet and dual 2.5" outlets that I was thinking about. But only if the 3" inlet will mount right up. If not, I will just go with 2 straight pipes and be done. So if someone could tell me what size inlet I need, I would appreciate it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djh3 Posted February 26, 2014 Share #2 Posted February 26, 2014 So you are looking for the size of inlet you will need for a replacement muffler? I saw last year where a fellow put some thrush muffler on a 1st gen. Wouldnt it be easier to go the HD RK route. You could still get the black BBQ paint and take care of the chrome issue. I have a set of RK I can measure the inlets on tomorrow. But it seems to me they are less than 2" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thrush I can do for under $100 including some tips for the ends. And yes I am looking for the size of the end that will slip onto the header.

Freebird Posted February 26, 2014 Share #4 Posted February 26, 2014 For well under $100.00, you could go with a set of Harley mufflers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ventureless Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share #5 Posted February 26, 2014 For well under $100.00, you could go with a set of Harley mufflers. I just emailed you about the set you have. Will they slip right on the header or do I need some sort of clamp to attach them? I know I need the bracket for the back part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freebird Posted February 26, 2014 Share #6 Posted February 26, 2014 I think I replied to your email. I will include the clamps that came with them. I think they should work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
