Ed, pleas estimate the size and price of the new pipe Paul talked about.

Notice in pix two that the number one (car) exhaust goes up about a half

inch.

1/4 at the center. Limit the front width to 11.5 if possible. If shorter,
I could clear the engine mount in back. But if not the Ourter dim of
the 3" out pipe need to be about 12" from the exhaust port plane.

In the final version of the VAM, would it be better to add slip or flanged
fittings on the pipes going into the can to allow for differential
expansion?

I think so. Not sure. Jury still out. Most tangential mufflers I have
seen so far don't need them.
