Where are you going to find the room to bolt a muffler?

A 1 chamber Flowstopper would be all that will fit off of shorties. I see shorties is what youre using? That'll make it hard.

Re: Dump off the headers
You wouldn't be able to bolt any muffler directly to shortys. Long tubes aren't much better with the transmission and front subframe rails in the way.

I've got longtubes on the way. Do you think the bullet type would fit good?
