    Oval Muffler Dimensions - 1961

    Can someone please provide the approximate dimensions of the oval muffler used in 1961? I believe the inlet is centered and the outlet is offset. Please confirm this too. I checked the archives and there is no info on the subject.

    Thank you.

    Mike,
    I bought a set about 30 years ago for my '59 that I never used. These were mufflers only without the welded-on inlet pipe. All years (56-62) had similar muffler bodies, but remember that NCRS guidelines are to have welded-on pipes:

    Length of muffler body...........23"
    Width of muffler body.............8"
    Max thickness of oval.........3 1/2"
    Diameter of CENTERED inlet........2" ID (inlet pipe goes inside)
    Length of inlet...............2 1/4"
    Diameter of OFFSET outlet.....1 3/4" OD (outlet pipe goes outside)
    Length of outlet..............2 1/2"

    Hope this helps.....
    Brad

        Thank you both very much. That was more info than I expected but the effort typifies the membership quality. I really appreciate it.
