I drove my 4.0 jeep for a while with no muffler and it was hard to tolerate. It was also hard to tolerate with a thrush muffler, but the quietflow muffler fixed it :thumbsup:

So leave it open is what I'm saying.

As long as they patch up the hole in the firewall he should be fine.

Also was wondering, does it have a functional heater?

I feel like fixing one leads to the other being needed. Keep the Windows open and buy a pack of earplugs. Or true war boy that poo poo and ride with your ears free to embrace the ebb and flow of your people's war song.

Or just wear earplugs or ear defenders. I am assuming that 14" wants a musical soundtrack on the road so its gonna be headphones under a set of ear defenders.

What fun is a project if it doesn't at least slightly ruin your life?
The worst my truck ever ran was on open headers. It kicked and popped and the throttle response was really weird. It was also extremely loud, and not in a good way. Get a decent exhaust, especially for how long the drive is.

Is there any reason you couldn't use some of that lovely flex piping you find at Autozone, a couple clamps, and some coat hanger wire to string up the cut off mufflers from the van / Jeep under the chassis somewhere with the tips dumping behind the cab? It will look and sound hilarious (especially if you mix / match the Jeep and van mufflers) but your ears will thank you, the CO ingress to the cab would be a lot less, and you'll attract a lot less attention from law enforcement. NE to FL is a long way to go without expecting to encounter some quota filling cop who would just love to write noise tickets to the earsplitting out-of-state plated old dump truck. Or at least using the "excessive noise" excuse to pull the truck over and see a definitely-not-period-correct gauge pod ziptied to the dash, etc...which may make for an uncomfortable roadside questioning session at the very least.

Also, seems like it would be a bad time in the event of some sort of emergency vehicle coding up behind (or from the side) and unable to be heard because of earphones + ear defenders + the unmuffled motor roaring.

His own blood drowned him
Shot off the bead seat
Just to save the mounting fee
Kiss my rear end goodbye

The rear end-half is the part that's not the face-half. The face-half is the part with which you screw. Looks like you'll need to buy the face-half if you really want to chooch.

Old AI poster Toucan Sam was showing me one of his demo derby cars that had open headers out of the hood with hater pipes. He was revving that thing like crazy and a big V8 doing combustion less than 3' from my ears made me want to cry.

Not tolerable without ear protection for any length of time.

For $10 more you can get one that you can upload ANY MP3 to via USB:

IMAGINE the fun you could have with that.

edit: gently caress, they've go one using tow horn speakers and a Lepai amp. They want $80 for it, but they include a *1* GB USB thumb drive!

When I was a teenager, I got to drive two heats and a main in a car with flipped headers and hater pipes.

I lost my ear plugs before the main, and couldn't hear correctly for about 2 weeks.

I don't know if AI ever heard my Salvia story. It was 2005, I'd discovered mushrooms and LSD and thought salvia sounded interesting. I bought some, and sat down with a bong and a torch, got it glowing white hot and ripped the fattest lung full I could pull. Immediately I knew I had hosed up on a level previously undiscovered by anyone other than those unlucky few in the employ of the Reich who chose not to shield their gaze from the opened Ark of the Covenant. My friend said "give me the lighter-ighter-ighteritererererer" as his voice began reverb feed backing. The whole room turned emerald green, smoke began boiling out of the air around me. And inside that smoke, thousands of eyes of all color and all species began to open and flick their stares around this new world they now saw in blind panic. A blue djinn's hand with long hooked jet nails with gold scrollwork hennah and a huge ruby set in its back coalesced out of the smoke and eyes and snapped its fingers.

A black flat plane cracked open reality through the hinge of my jaw, and the top half of existence hinged upward and back as my head folded with it. My consciousness went into my tongue, which turned into a little finned rocket and shot out between my lower jaw halves which had split down the center and were dislocating like a python, and I blasted out past my teeth belching flames the color of a scrolling food pyramid marquee.

As I'm rocketing past my.teeth I realise inside each tooth is a smaller me hitting a smaller bong with salvia creating smaller teeth and smaller fractures in reality making smaller mes hitting even smaller bongs creating smaller fractures in reality creating....

IM SITTING INSIDE A GIANT TOOTH INSIDE A GIANT ME INSIDE A GIANT FRACTURE IN REALITY INSIDE AN EVEN BIGGER ME CREATING

It was here my brain had officially hit five stars and existence is exploding around me and the brain army is here and there's birds and OH gently caress ME MY BRAIN IS LAGGING BECAUSE I loving DIVIDED BY ZERO and the entire time my tongue ship is blasting off into the rift thousands of voices are counting down from ten in a joyful chorus. And I remember it went silent after two, and then a woman whispered into my ear.

"This is where it gets really weird."

At that moment the drives came online, and I exceeded the velocity of light and punched a hole out of our dimension where I became a fractal meat worm of all five senses in all four dimensions and escaped existence as we know it.

At minimum, weld one muffler on each side, just off enough from straight up to prevent most water/snow entrance, and leave the hood in the rear. Or would that do basically nothing, sound-wise?
