Ultraflows and Magnaflows are straight through, they flow real well. Does anyone know what type of muffler this is, looks to be a Walker muffler at first glance, but then the casting looks ss.

It's an x down stream as 2 pipes are exiting on opposite sides.

Beware there is a fundamental flaw in the fitment of this dual, and that is one of the two panhard rods was removed. Fitment aside, number of different mufflers would fit that application very nicely.

flowmaster makes the same kind of muffler too. i think its an 80 series muffler. but i know what he's talking about too, because that is the same way the exaust was on the early camaros (67-73) and its what my friend has on his '72 Z. his is ran all the way back to the muffler strait w/o the x-pipe upstream. and it gives the car a very unique sound.

So, is there another type of muffler that would fit that location other than Dynomax and Magnaflow? Does sweet thunder or Hooker make anything with dual in dual out?

Early Camaros sound awesome with true duals. They have a passage under the chassis so pipes are routed conveniently without taking away floor space. Flows and duals truly sound unique.

Ok, I did some research before I post this info. Talked to a few muff shops and picked up a part number.

Dynomax Ultraflows are straight through, part #17276 for dual in dual out. The pipes are designed to go straight through each side. You can see a pic and the various sizes here:

Now if only there was pre-bent mand pipes that fit the 4th gen, a custom true dual with single muffler would not be so hard to build! I know Dr. Gas has prebent for eary gens, but have not bend anything yet for 4th gens that has been posted on their web site.
