N-11 exhaust on 63 Corvette

[Rex T.]

Does anyone know if the 64-67 Corvette N-11 exhaust will fit on an early 1963 Corvette? By early, I mean the ones with the storage wells under the seats. As always, thanks in advance for your help. Rex NCRS #8089

The rear frame will have to be modified for the attaching hardware on any 63-64, as side exhaust was a 65-7 option only. As far as the floor configuration goes, I can't imagine it would matter as the side exhaust is outside the frame rails.

I think that Rex is talking about "off road" exhaust. N-11 is "off-road" exhaust; N-14 is side exhaust.

N-11 will not fit on 63's with the flooe board wells without modification which I think is impractical. So, for all practical purposes, the answer is no, they won't fit.

The '63 rear pipe section has an inboard "jog" in order for them to clear the seat wells. The N-11 pipes do not have this jog, so they will not fit the underbody of early '63s. They might fit the late '63s with the shallow wells, but I'm not sure.

Though N-11 is listed as a '63 option in most sources including the NCRS Specification Guide, the quantity of N-11 is listed as zero.
