Andy,
Unfortunately, since there is little clearance for mufflers under Spits,
your options are very limited. There are a number of free flow mufflers
made for American cars but they are all too large to fit under your
Spit.
Glass Packs are typically way louder than what you want and quickly burn
out making them louder still. The Monza (although I like it's sound) is
pretty loud but it gives about as good exhaust flow as you will get
without radically rerouting the exhaust.
Regards,
Joe

Subject: Exhaust(ing) question
OK, it was a cheap pun. Anyway, here is what I would like suggestions
concerning. I would like to replace the muffler that is currently on
my car (71
Mk 4) with something that is quieter, yet still allows good exhaust
flow with
a mimimum of back pressure. I would like to retain the headers on it.
Also,
when the engine was rebuilt, it was bored out, & a Weber DGV installed.
Any
suggestions?
TIA
Andy Henderson
