 Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
I know they have an aluminum clutch cover,but has anyone have any cheaper solutions to protect cover.(is it the pipe or the exhaust fumes that melts cover?)

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
All I know is if you are the only one making them, then you are the one that gets to set the price for the market since you essentially have a monopoly.

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
Yall cut Bunny some slack, he's just lookin out for ya. I mean, afterall, it's not made in south LA & not designed by Hoyt, Kyle, or an Aucoin, so how can it be any good?

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
It's the exhaust that's blowin striaght onto the plastic housing. You talked about a 90 deg piece before, not really sure if that would work or not. The crossover sits so close to the housing that you can't even run the silencer, but hey, guess ya could give it a shot. Odds are ya gonna end up melting the housing anyhow, but good luck with it.

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
Pm take'emgator and get him to send ya a close up pic of his, you can see it in the pic in this link, but looks like it will fit. I remember him tellin me he couldn't run his silencer because of clearence issues, he mighta been talkin about the plastic cover tho. http://www.setxperformance.com/NEW-Alum ... ng-022.htm

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
You can order the Marsh Mellow or the BPS from ANY distributor. Chops3131 (SETXPerformance.com) sells both, as well as the aluminum clutch housing.

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
I know that GT is only selling them for GT's because of heat shield fabrication,but is this the only modification. If so i can slap a clutch box cover and get regular marshmellow.

 Re: Cross over exhaust on gator tail question
The only diff is the heat shield. If you buy the aluminum housing you can get the standard mm exhaust or the crossover.
