Kurt,
I don't know if this will help you any but when our 1993 had to have a
new muffler and exhaust system, Jack worked with Ralph Fullenwider. They
used 5 " components and those worked fine. Maybe you could contact Ralph
and he could give you more information on our exhaust redo. I believe
that Ralph is listed in the membership here.
