Paul,

I've been running the GT6 box and tail on my Spit for several years
now. Sounds and looks great. We have discussed this several times
on the list in the past. One of the problems you may run into is the
frame extensions used in the later cars to support the larger bumpers.
I don't have the dimensions with me, but some one on the list should
be able to supply the width of the GT6 box so that you can find out
if it will fit.

Hey Andy Mace, do you remember if there was a problem on the rubber
bumper versions? I know that you keep track of all this UBS (useless
bits of s**t). ;)

anyone have any comments on using a GT6
1 3/4" dia. exhaust on a Spit (originally only 1.5")

...plus the GT6 had  twin out tubes on the rear box
