Kevin,
Thanks for the lead, found the thread and jmimac351's post ...
289 Body on FFR mkIV chassis
That sure looks like CSX 2472, the restored Dragon Snake that was at SAAC 35. I saw the same car at the De Anza College car show and took these photos. The 'exhaust' is just a straight pipe and when they fired up the car it sounded great and very loud!
Also have some photos I took at Laguna Seca of barn find CSX 2289.
Both give good examples of where to exit the pipes, and how long to have them stick out. It also looks like heat from the exhaust does not appear to be damaging the paint, no fiberglass to melt on these cars
===================
CSX 2472
The pipes on 2472 look like they have about a 45 degree turn out very similar to the ERA pipes
===================
CSX 2289
These pipes have a simple 90 degree turn out
===================
Have to say in looking at the two setups, I like the 45 degree look of the pipes on 2472 ... ERA chose wisely
Any more examples ?
