72 torino exhaust

Hi All, I am new to the forum so please forgive me if the isnt in the correct spot. Anyway, i have a 1972 torino and i would like to put a true dual exhaust on it to get that "muscle car sound". the only problem is that i cant find anyone who makes a system for my car. I know that many companies make an exhaust for a 1972 mustang, and mustangs and torinos are very similar, so could i use a mustang exhaust? Thanks

Don't bother getting a kit.

I installed my own long tube headers and had my 2 1/2in exhaust system custom made for only $140. Granted I had also already purchased my mufflers and the pipes end with turndowns before the rear axle, but I bet you could have a full custom exhaust made for your car and installed for not much more that $250 or so.

Now if you add an H-pipe or expensive mufflers, that price can definitely go up...

Welcome to FM. Here's a link with video and a complete install on the same chassis as yours. Be sure to click on the sidebar videos, there's a real sound sample that IMO is a true musclecar sound.

Thank you guys a lot! that is the exact setup i want with the flowmaster 50s etc. im just wondering if there is any way to reduce the amount of welding needed, i can weld, im just not TOO confident just yet. thanks again

just joined. if you havent done your exhaust yet, think about this. My 72 torino is getting new exhaust right now. Dual 3" back to a 3 1/2" electric cutout directed out the driverside right infront of the rear tire. Then one large Magnaflow muffler to a single 4" tail pipe out the back. Cheaper then duals, loud when i want it to be and quiet when it needs to be. Oh, in all the years ive had this car, and i bought it new, I have never seen headers made for it. Maybe there is now, but i think most folks just modifiy Mustang headers to fit a Cleveland Torino
