35 muffler. options

[kevinshea]

I had a backfire that popped by muffler.. now looking for a replacement..

seems I have a few options: I can get one from Classic Exhaust for $225... or if anyone has one to sell, or any suggestion for a "modern" muffler that will work?

What is a muffler? Dead weight is my opinion.

There are those who, in order to (positively) determine if the engine is running, must touch the fan blade.

Do you have the dimensions? Maybe someone can help with some info.

I would also suggest Waldron’s Exhaust in Michigan. They likely have one in stock.

Waldrons have them in steel for $170 .. 1-2 week delivery..

A good glasspack muffler will give it the right sound.

According to some, a piece of plain exhaust pipe will be even better.

Exactly.

I never saw it done, but have heard of using a torque tube for a deep rumble!

I have a set of lake style headers I made from '36 torque tube. Good sound.

Half of a '35-'36 tubular driveshaft would be a big weight saving over an actual torque tube.

When a failed condenser led to the demise of grandpa's muffler; a trip to a local muffler shop provided a suitable replacement.

My memory misfired. It was the driveshaft.

tractor supply has a variety and a lot cheaper that those quoted

a Ford 600 or 800 muffler works just fine. Weld on inlet and outlets to match old muffler. Price is reasonable, less that fifty dollars and a good stout muffler.
