You only have a 3" bullet? Is this the body size, or the inlet/outlet size? I'm looking at the 16" X 4" body X 3" inlet/outlet.

Is anyone running the summit bullets??

I think the one I have is slightly longer but the 3" is the in/out diameter and the case itself is the 4". Which is why I want to move mine to the rear ot center of the car, you can see it right away and it looks terrible.

I had a Bullet under the Car.. I ****** HATED it..couldn't hear anything in the Car..lol
I got a Magnaflow over the Axle to reduce the sound in the Interior..and it did. I have the Cut-out when I want to rip it up.

This is what I did to make a removable Exhaust from the Headers back bro.
Look in this picture and you will see the Stainless Band Clamps..



I have 3 of them. The 2 in the front are 3", and they are banded around the Y-Pipe, that's flared so it slips over the Header Collectors.
The one in the back is 3.5", and that's directly over a cut that I made so I can drop the whole Exhaust System when I'm pulling the Transmission out. It's just banded around the Pipe with the cut in the center of it, and it doesn't leak at all.


It takes me about 5 minutes to drop the whole Exhaust. Can't beat that bro..

Thanks & looks good, maybe i'll do something like that, its just the slip joint over the axle thats a pain, how much did those joint clamps cost?

I really don't mind the extra noise or rumble, i might try it for awhile too see how much or if it drives me crazy lol, i was thinking of starting off with a bullet in the Ory, then down the road going with duals.

Those Band Clamps are like $12 from Napa..

I hated the Bullet in my Car.. with the LT1 it wasn't too bad, with that Stroker Motor it's just too loud..lol
With that Cut-out open I have to yell to the person next to me.

I forgot that i bought 2 summit turbo mufflers for my D-100 last year, there brand new in the box, i may see if i can fab them up with hangers & have duals, there 2.1/2 inlet/outlet off set on one side, heck there paid for, this way i don't mess up my Ory & catback, i can just put them away.
