<div>Hi,</div><div><br></div><div>Most of the bolt-on TR6 exhaust systems are fairly easy to install, so I won't comment there. That said, I am a big fan of custom exhausts and you can make a TR6 sound awesome but not DRONE like some of the systems that are available. I had Monza for a long time and while it sounded okay, it was extremely tiring on long trips and I made a number of cross country rides to VTR events back in the day. About 20 years ago, I fabricated a custom system for my race car. The car was used mostly for autocross and sound control was (and is) a big issue in our region. I wound up making the system up from 2.5 inch tube into a "turbo" style muffler that is packed with sound absorbing material. When you stand on it, it marks nicely, but it is fairly quiet at idle and there is no droning at all. A custom shop can do the job for you for a a few hundred dollars or if you are adventurous, you can fab one up using pre-formed mandrel-bent tubing.</div><div><br></div><div>I have a video on YouTOOb of my street car. That one used 2.25 inch pipe which is fine if you're not looking to get max power. <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPom1NmZRGs" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" class="enhancr_card_7331073889">74 Triumph Exhaust</a></div><div><br></div><div id="ydpb2268412enhancr_card_7331073889" class="ydpb2268412yahoo-link-enhancr-card ydpb2268412ymail-preserve-class ydpb2268412ymail-preserve-style" style="max-width:400px;font-family:"Helvetica Neue", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;" data-url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPom1NmZRGs" data-embed-url="https://www.youtube.com/embed/aPom1NmZRGs" data-type="YENHANCER" data-size="MEDIUM" contenteditable="false"><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aPom1NmZRGs" style="text-decoration:none !important;color:#000 !important;" class="ydpb2268412yahoo-enhancr-cardlink" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><table class="ydpb2268412card-wrapper ydpb2268412yahoo-ignore-table" style="max-width:400px;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td width="400"><table class="ydpb2268412card ydpb2268412yahoo-ignore-table" style="max-width:400px;border-width:1px;border-style:solid;border-color:rgb(224, 228, 233);border-radius:2px;" width="100%" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td class="ydpb2268412card-primary-image-cell" style="background-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-repeat: no-repeat; background-size: cover; position: relative; border-radius: 2px 2px 0px 0px; min-height: 175px;" valign="top" height="175" bgcolor="#000000" background="https://s.yimg.com/lo/api/res/1.2/kvbAvGIcE6xuz13NHlZfLw--~A/Zmk9ZmlsbDt3PTQwMDtoPTIwMDthcHBpZD1pZXh0cmFjdA--/https://i.ytimg.com/vi/aPom1NmZRGs/hqdefault.jpg.cf.jpg"><!--[if gte mso 9]><v:rect fill="true" stroke="false" style="width:396px;height:175px;position:absolute;top:0;left:0;"><v:fill type="frame" color="#000000" src="https://s.yimg.com/lo/api/res/1.2/kvbAvGIcE6xuz13NHlZfLw--~A/Zmk9ZmlsbDt3PTQwMDtoPTIwMDthcHBpZD1pZXh0cmFjdA--/https://i.ytimg.com/vi/aPom1NmZRGs/hqdefault.jpg.cf.jpg"/></v:rect><![endif]--><table class="ydpb2268412card-overlay-container-table ydpb2268412yahoo-ignore-table" style="width:100%;" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0"><tbody><tr><td class="ydpb2268412card-overlay-cell" style="background-color: transparent; border-radius: 2px 2px 0px 0px; min-height: 175px;" valign="top" bgcolor="transparent" background="https://s.yimg.com/cv/ae/nq/storm/assets/enhancrV21/1/enhancr_gradient-400x175.png"><!--[if gte mso 9]><v:rect fill="true" stroke="false" style="width:396px;height:175px;position:absolute;top:-18px;left:0;"><v:fill type="pattern" color="#000000" src="https://s.yimg.com/cv/ae/nq/storm/assets/enhancrV21/1/enhancr_gradient-400x175.png"/><v:textbox inset="0,0,20px,0"><![endif]--><table class="ydpb2268412yahoo-ignore-table" style="width: 100%; min-height: 175px;" height="175" border="0"><tbody><tr><td class="ydpb2268412card-richInfo2" style="text-align:left;padding:15px 0 0 15px;vertical-align:top;"></td><td class="ydpb2268412card-actions" style="text-align:right;padding:15px 15px 0 0;vertical-align:top;"><div class="ydpb2268412card-share-container"></div></td></tr></tbody></table><!--[if gte mso 9]></v:textbox></v:rect><![endif]--></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr><tr><td><table class="ydpb2268412card-info ydpb2268412yahoo-ignore-table" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); background-repeat: repeat; background-attachment: scroll; background-image: none; background-size: auto auto; position: relative; z-index: 2; width: 100%; max-width: 400px; border-radius: 0px 0px 2px 2px; border-top: 1px solid rgb(224, 228, 233);" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" align="center"><tbody><tr><td style="background-color:#ffffff;padding:16px 0 16px 12px;vertical-align:top;border-radius:0 0 0 2px;"><img class="ydpb2268412card-object-1 ydpb2268412yahoo-ignore-inline-image ydpb2268412ymail-preserve-class" src="https://s.yimg.com/nq/storm/assets/enhancrV2/23/logos/youtube.png" style="min-width:36px;margin-top:3px;" height="36"></td><td style="vertical-align:middle;padding:12px 24px 16px 12px;width:99%;font-family:"Helvetica Neue", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;border-radius:0 0 2px 0;"><h2 class="ydpb2268412card-title" style="font-size:14px;line-height:19px;margin:0 0 6px 0;font-family:"Helvetica Neue", "Segoe UI", Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;word-break:break-word;color:#26282a;">74 Triumph Exhaust</h2><p class="ydpb2268412card-description" style="font-size:12px;line-height:16px;margin:0px;color:#979ba7;word-break:break-word;">This is a video showing a custom exhaust system that is installed on a 74 Triumph TR6.</p></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></tbody></table></a></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>If you want to hear the sound of the race car with the 2.5 inch setup and turbo muffler, check out any of my in-car videos on you tube.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Last - the stock exhaust manifold is somewhat restrictive.

<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal">I need to replace the exhaust system on my 1972 TR6. The current system appears to be custom made. There is a dual pipe coming off the exhaust manifold which makes the 90 degree turn to go to the back of the car. This pipe goes from
two pipes into one which continues to the rear of the car. There is a single muffler in line with the pipes. I would like to replace everything with a new Bell stainless steel system but have some questions.</p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal">My first preference is to use the Bell Sport system with two mufflers. If I use this where do I attached the muffler hanger bracket for the right muffler? I have the mounting tab for the left side but don’t have anything on the right side
to attach the muffler.</p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal">My other option is to use the standard stainless steel system with two pipes and the single muffler which goes crossways.</p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal">I have heard on the list many positive comments regarding the Bell Sports system but nothing about the standard system. I plan on purchasing through Empire British Car Parts.</p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="yiv8208903568MsoNormal">Thanks in advance for your help.</p>
