As for muffler length, I like loud and so for me the shorter the muffler the better.

Your best source might be your local muffler/exaust pipe shop where they may construct your pipes to your specs for less money then the mail order pipes. Keep your tubing to 1.75 in. or less for best sound.
Brought this one back from its grave because I wanted to ask if this conversion (DIY dual) will affect any of the engine's components, like exhaust valves, in the long run.

Thanks
