Post Is there a 993 muffler laces the muffler where the cat is?

I normally just lurk on the 993 board but a recent engine change raises a question I hope some of you can answer. I could not find anything through a search.
I am installing a 964 motor in my 78SC and using the 993 exhaust manifolds. I am looking for someone who makes a muffler that bolts onto the 993 exhaust manifolds and takes the place of the cat. I do not have room in the quater panels to run the mufflers in the 993 configuration. I was planning on going the custom route, but if there is a manufacturer around I would like to consider that as an option.
Thanks.

If there is someone who makes a muffler that bolts directly to the 993 heat exchangers, I'm not aware of it.

LOL,..I wish there was. That might have saved us many hours of work.

These sorts of things fall under the heading of: "Custom" and you will have to fabricate this yourself. We took the 993 HE and attached/relocated different outlet flanges. Then, we took a Monty Sport muffler and relocated the inlet flanges to match and the end result was very nice.

Its a LOT of work but, IMHO, its well worth the efforts.

Thanks Steve. I've seen pictures of your work in this area and plan on attempting to duplicate the work using a OEM two-out-the-back Sport muffler.

PBS911,

Check the 964 Board there are two recent threads there dealing with 993 mufflers, and all sorts of custom stuff. There is a guy on that thread Kevin who is happy to share this knowledge about such modications. He has even offered to loan a jig he made for one of his projects.

I think the threads are "993 muffler in a 964" and "Twin Exhaust Project".
