New challenger exhaust on a C

[SGT FURY]

,l got 5 sets of these new challenger exhaust systems from the scrap pile at a dodge dealer.
They are NOS and take offs
I was going to use just the mufflers on a BB 61 Plymouth.
They have a pentastar logo
Can you guys think of any reason I should not? Or why they wouldn't work?

If you have a need to use them, why not?
When I put my Mopar Exhaust system on my Challenger I couldnt think of a reason to bring the "old" one home. It had less than 1000 miles on it.

I think how they sound will be the most important factor...please report back as I'm curious.

Dimensionally, they'll fit and likely be short compared to original C body muffs.

If you can make them fit, then definitely worth a try!

If I understand that the price was free why not give it a try.

Free is good. Making it work is better.

Well it’s worth a try and maybe save some cash .... I would love to find a dual exhaust offered for my 67 dodge Monaco 500

Those mufflers and resonators are tuned to eliminate the resonance on the engines when they go into MultiDisplacement mode, and also for a V* that has no heat crossover in the intake manifold. 2 features our cars don't have.

I have an X-pipe setup on my sig-pic car, and when I blocked the crossover in the intake I got an *awful* resonance that came on/off like a light switch at particular RPM (no tach, unfortunately) and that spot was 1/2-way between idle and a normal shift point. I drove 1 block that way, turned around and unblocked it.

I'm not saying you'll have trouble, just that resonances can be a funny thing. Maybe the mufflers by themselves will be OK - let us know!

Do pre- and post- soundclips!

How many mufflers did you get? if more than you need what do you want for a pair?

I got 5 sets, I have this pair of mufflers with pentastar logo for $40 plus shipping
