I am going to be changing my exhaust over soon. Years ago I got a brand new exhaust from the local farm store. I was workin on a brush pile and it beat that exhaust up pretty bad. I replaced it with one of those silly little vertical stacks. Mmmmm the fresh scent of burning fuel what a wonderful thing. Well not so bad at first but now I am rethinking things. With this j pipe for the vertical exhaust it loops down about 9 inches from the manifold then tuns back up. The running board on the tractor is about 9 inches lower than the manifold. I am thinking about cutting the j pipe mid bend where it is at its s lowest point then putting a straight pipe or with a slight bend to get around the bell then mounting a Walker Quiet flow for a Honda under the running board with a turn down. It all looks like it will line up pretty well. The muffler will is just as wide as the running board and only hangs down 4 inches which puts it higher than the original muffler that got beat up. I have seen where some people have done similar things, is there anyone with any advice?
