I searched the message board to no avail! What size and length black pipe should I buy for the exhaust pipe on my 1950 H?

Boys you can tune your exhaust system to scavenge and get the most power out of your machine. Put in a 3-4' piece of pipe and run the tractor under load. You will see the heat mark on the pipe where it appears to have gotten the hottest. That's where the scavenging is taking place and its there that you should cut the pipe. You will now have a tuned exhaust giving you maximum horse power. With tractors its easy..in autos Hedman, Hooker,and supply co.s such as these have done the tuning. Auto racers have been using tuned exhausts for decades...Good luck from Mike in Exeter Ontario

The Pipe coming up thru the hood is 2-3/8 outside diameter. I looked at all the muffler shops around where I live and they don't have muffler pipe that is 2-3/8" I.D. If you can find a piece it should be 18"-24" in length.
I pulled the pipe comming out of the manifold and took a 36" piece of 2" water pipe and bent a 30 Degree bend in it and cut the end so it is straight up and down to help keep the rain out. My H is noisy like that but has great pulling torque, so I just unscrew that pipe and put the muffler back on when I'm not pulling.

Regular 2" black iron pipe will work for your. exhaust pipe, but it doesn't seem like a good idea to make it the full length(30 inches or so) straight pipe because if you hit something with it, it will probably break the thread boss right out of the manifold rather than the pipe at the threads--Murphy's law you know.

Thanks for the input. I will be using 2" black pipe, cut to a length to clear the top of the hood by about 4", so when I install the muffler, the 'joint' will be below the hood line. This way, any minute exhaust leak @ the muffler to pipe joint won't ruin my paint job! Grant

That is a good idea EXCEPT it will be a P.I.T.A. when you need to take the hood off. Originally they used the strap type clamp and it was above the hood. This made it easy to take off to remove the hood. Of course they didn't care about a little soot on the hood when they designed the tractors.
