Hi
Paul and Jay are both correct. The GT4 original muffler fits tighter to the shape of the car, much nicer look IMHO. But either will fit. I would love to get an original but the budget makes me wait. First picture is of non-original muffler, others are of original.

Oops. Just noticed you were replying to Stu. But Classic Coach is a great source for NOS exhaust systems for all models for anyone else who might be searching.

Greg,

The last time I was at Classic Coach (Elizabeth, NJ) a few weeks ago, one of the technicians gave me a full tour of their spare parts depot, which included row after row of NOS mufflers. Try giving them a call at (908) 352-3939. Ask for Rocco.

The reason why I mention the angle is because Gerrit mentioned his is from a GTB and doesnt look right, sticks out too far and so on.

Peter let us know, looks like we could all put it to good use. Maybe we can draw straws? :-)

The condition is very good. No 'bottom out' dents.
It will be off my car in about two weeks (going through the gearbox at this time). I will have no use for it. With the new exhaust, I look forward to posting a few pics to see what ya 'all think!

Angle should be fine Paul. From behind the fire wall a GT4 is virtually identical to a GTS/B.

Peter,

I've got a '77 308 with a muffler that's starting to develop small holes in the bottom right side. I was thinking about my options when your post showed up. What kind of condition is it in?

Jay, I think the tips will stick out too far on the GT4 as well as the angle will be wrong being from a GTB/S so you will still have the wrong one. I on the other hand wouldnt mind it if you bail.

Peter is it in good condition? I have an injected muffler for my GT4 but I don't think it will bolt up. I was going to look for a carbed exhaust for it. How much do you want? Got any pictures?

I will be replacing the stock muffler on my '77 308 with a custom tuned exhaust (by Wayne Hynes of SR Exotics, Livermore,CA). I will be happy to give the muffler to someone that may need one for their car (not intended for someone that wants to resell it, please). I should have it off the car in about two weeks.

Please let me know!

Peter
