Sounds like you were happy with the results from your last effort, so 
why would you want to deviate from proven success.  Ten years ain't too 
bad for a driver Vair with split dual exhaust!  Now, if you only had it 
out ten times in the last ten years, that might be a different matter.

If you want to spend less time on it, take it to a custom exhaust shop 
and let them do the work and supply the parts; otherwise, it sounds like 
you are stuck with the same program of using your time that you did ten 
years ago.  I sure don't know of any "quick and easy" instant Corvair 
exhaust-in-a-box or aerosol spray-on.  Your engine will align in the 
body just enough different than mine to make custom adjustments a 
requirement to get that "correct side discharge alignment" you desire.

Even oem factory exhaust didn't fit well without "adjustments" -- went 
though several sets on a 140 Corsa back when this stuff was cheap and GM 
was still 'making more'.  Welding it up with a cross pipe  helped hold 
it all together.

Is anyone making a one piece cross pipe, dual muffler system (or just 
the pipe) for the 140 manifolds?  Matt?
