    Exhaust system for 63

    I just received the welded exhaust sytem from Allen's. On one of the systems, there is a double kick on the straight pipe between the center support and the muffler, but the other sytem does not have those (2) bends, it goes straight. Is that normal, and what are the bends for?
    Allen's said, its suppose to be like that.

    I can tell you that the configuration of the pipes on each side are significantly different. The bends are present to allow the exhaust pipes to clear various underbody structures. For 1963, there may have been additional bends to clear the under-seat tool wells.

      Yes, '63 pipes have the "tool well" jogs to clear the deep depressions under the seats of early '63s. Even though these deep wells disappeared a little past mid-production, I don't think the pipes changed and the under the car "off-road" system was not installed, not can it be retrofited.

        I installed (roughly, w/o front pipe installed) the systems and they look OK. The one on the driver side is the one, which does have the double kick.
        Thanks,
