They fit great especially on the driver's side with the pedal assembly etc. 12" Mellow Tone mufflers available from Van Pelt sales fit in the limited space in the X member on either side. In my case Tubular Automotive in Weymouth MA mandrel bent the tailpipes for it and they were right on the money. I may still have the mock up pipes they first bent to ensure the final ones were right. if so, you could have them bend a set for you from those mockups.

WOW! I haven't heard that name in years, had no idea they were still around. "Tubey Dick" made me a set of "spaghetti" headers for a 351 Cleveland back in the mid '70's.
that said, absolutely phenomenal work !
Still have their sticker on my toolbox
