Re: Modified mufflers?

If you got caught by the law for some reason and then told to do some community service, then offered a tv show (monster garage) as said community service, would you take it too? The story goes (as far as I've read and heard) that the first few months were that way but then he signed a contract to get paid for it all. Personally I think it would be a blast but I would object to the old classices but hack up anything common. Jesse James is kind of a douch (pardon) but the guy does have some real talent. Ever watch him take a piece of sheet and hammer it on a bag before taking it to the wheels to smoothen out into a gas tank for a bike? yeah, the guy actually does know what he is doing and he does it quite well..........better than the guys at OCC. BUT, Mosnter garage was a second job that he got paid a lot (plus got mad publicity for his bike shop) to just uck around and experiment with toys. Personally I wouldn't take it anymore serious than Jesse did........


BUT, that's waaaayyyyy off topic. Has anyone else on here ever modified a muffler? What ones did you use? I think I'm going to try and make one from scratch today to see what I can do. Anyone feel like receiving an e-mail and posting a couple pics for me?

Partly priorites, partly because computers never do what I tell/instruct them to do whereas I can ALWAYS make metal do what I want it to............except cook and clean......

Re: Modified mufflers?

My honest opinion is that the guy is a awesome and can do ANYTHING, I'm quite impressed with what he can do. I just wish he would limit the hacking to 80's on up Buicks and leave the real steel alone-
