1450 custom exhaust
 
The threads for the exhaust manifold are stripped out on my 1450. I see a lot of guys with custom straight pipes. Is everyone building these themselsves, or using a shop? I would like to run a straight pipe down and out the bottom next to the pto. Also, need to use an exhuast flange since the head is stripped out. Any suggestions? Where to buy pipe and a bender?? Thanks in advance.

With a 1" EMT 90, and piece of 1/4 plate for a flange, a 8" baffle, a brazing torch, some rod, about $12 and an imagination you could build a really cool stack.

Here's mine.

I can't help you with the imagination, you're on your own.

This one cost me $5 at a local muffler shop, and took about 10 minutes for them to do...

Also the baffle and EMT is very light, I don't think you'll even need a brace. And they sound very nice.

SCOTT,
I think that you should make couple sets of those up. So some of us can buy them from you.

Those are pretty awesome Scott. I think Jay's suggestion is the way to go for me. A lot easier on my limited amount of free time. Thanks everyone.:beerchug:
