Re: It's MSS exhaust... Posted by eric in vermont [Email] ![]() ![]() In Reply to: It's MSS exhaust..., UpstateNY Bill, Wed, 2 Jan 2008 16:35:36 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
That's correct- its from Motor Sport Service. I have one on each of my Sonett's and Jack also makes one for the 95/96. It's essentially an "extractor" type exhaust that scavenges during the exhaust cycle. It has a "Y" pipe that is joined exactly 39 inches from the heads to make this happen. It then has a single pipe from there on. Jack, as you may know, successfully campaigned a Sonett in SCCA racing, winning the national championship in '83 IIRC- F production- 10 races, 10 wins. His exhaust is based on his racing experience with the V-4. He has two versions, one with a single glasspack and one with two glasspacks. I have one of each and the single is quite loud! It makes a great snap and burble on decel however! It does add HP, especially coupled with ported heads and a larger carb. Some people have been harassed by local police with the single system, although I never have.
I have a '68 Deluxe that has a Simmonds performance exhaust. It is much quieter, but I like the MSS one much better.
