Title: For a 2276ccm - witch Header or Muffler? Post by: Mario/DKT on March 26, 2008, 09:27:04 am The 2276ccm Type1 for the lowlight is ready to start
Now i need a header and muffler. I prefer the Phat boy turbo muffler with a 1 3/8" ceramic header (had this one on my 1962 squareback with a 1835 Type1). Which header/muffler do you use?

Post by: Mario/DKT on March 27, 2008, 08:44:07 am Hmmm. I'm not at home so i cant look....
I think, but i'm not sure - valves: 40/35,5 - cam: engle W120 - carb's: Weber 44IDF Want no dragrace engine. A enginge with horespower and with witch i can drive long distances without problems...

use a turbomuffler for best performance. dirk zeyen Title: Re: For a 2276ccm - witch Header or Muffler? Post by: GreenTom on March 27, 2008, 22:26:25 pm I would go for 1 5/8" with 2,5" turbo muffler :) I like the look of VWSS systems (stainless steal) I've got one fits perfect, look grate, sounds perfect price... I think for that quality is not so much.
the beutifful look and awsome performance (CB contest winning engine had that) 1 3/4" + 2,5" muff (there is avaliable one 70mm one awsome look grate sound) can make picks of all those exhausts if you wanna see one.
