Question Muffler Weight?

How much does each stock muffler weigh? That is without tip, clamps, or heat shield. I've weighted four and they all weighed about 15 lbs. each.

Does that sound about right?

I think they are taking the mickey out of you Ron!! I thought STOCK mufflers were about 20-22 pounds each? Look at some of the websites that sell mufflers, they may give you some numbers? You know the sites, the ones that give you 12hp just by "thinking" about buying their mufflers?
