Does anyone make these dual curved pipe muffler? Or is this something I'll have to get custom made?

Thanks DMLC71 but I had a quick look and could only see the LC muffler. Please let me know if I'm wrong. Cheers. Marty

Give datto a call Marty he should be able to help you out maybe

Howdy Grant, I have all the pics from John and I like the turn down pipes. :-). Might have to take them into my exhaust guy and hopefully he can make. I remember buying a genuine GTR muffler in the late eighties for $100. Marty

For those that don't know, the GTR muffler is single outlet and the dual chrome tail pipes are a fork or Y type arrangement.

I think your wrong Dave. Two chrome droopy pipes out of the rear of muffler. Your thinking LC.

Dave is never wrong....

That's what I thought. Sort of why I didn't say "Your Wrong Dave!"

Hi

 

Going by the LJ parts catalogue, the diagrams show a similar twin outlet muffler design for both the GTR and XU-1. The mufflers have different part numbers so it appears that the inlet diameter of the muffler is smaller on the GTR version. This is indicated by the fact that the exhaust clamps and U bolts have different part numbers.

 

Cheers

Not sure, but you will get a GM one from somewhere. Dave I

 

Here is an LC single curve:-

 

may not be original though

I could be wrong.

Back in the 80's my brother bought and put a genuine LJ GTR muffler on his LJ 4dr. Forked twin droopy chrome tail pipes same as LC.

Been Searching again Dave,

Does this look like the Forked LC GTR Muffler:-

Yes looks like the LC GTR muffler, however my brother got the LJ GTR muffler which I'm sure the tips were a bit further apart.

Maybe my memory is a bit scrambled (seems to be happening a bit lately) but I could swear the LJ GTR had the forked tips like the LC GTR.

Great Dave,

Never got into this subject before, so I am gathering info on the subject
