What's all that crud in the Mustang's pipes, and where are the pipes on the TA?

The gap is still the "stock" gap. I may lower it an inch in the future. Can't find the offset for the wheels, and I believe the rim width is 9.5"

Looks like a baffle. Metal with holes punched inward is what you are seeing, like a washing machine drum, not crud.

TA dumps just before the axle, with elbows coming off the mufflers pointed 45 down and out on either side of the diff.

Yes, and it's covered with crud. :biggrin:

Only 315? Guess you aren't putting down much power :)

Or still spinning, take your pick ;)

Planned to go 335 but seeing < 4 sec 1/8 mile cars with more than twice my power getting it done on 10" tires, I wised up to the fact that it's the rubber that matters, not the size of the rubber ;)
