crossflow orientation
« on: October 27 2024, 09:59:43 PM »
I have an ATR crossflow exhaust.  In hindsight, I don't think it was installed well, but I never payed attention to the muffler until I tried to re-install my fuel tank this week.  The muffler is probably 30 degrees from vertical, with the lower end hitting the fuel tank and the upper end hitting the rear-end.  (It may not have been touching previously, but 2 hangers broke free).  The exit pipe on the passenger side winds around and over the inlet. 

I think similar systems (RJC) have the muffler vertical, and the exit winds behind the inlet. 

Anybody know how it should look?  It's installed with band clamps instead of pinch clamps, but it's been on a long time.  My guess is it will need some persuasion to come apart.  But I would like to get it vertical and off the rear end and fuel tank.

Click the link, Jason has a couple of pictures...not sure if that will help. I'll have a look on Youtube...migh t be a couple of vids there.

Slide down...he also has a vid. You could call him as well. He's a one man show...so it may take a few calls for him to pick up the phone.

Yeah, I scoured those for a while before posting. Took a bit but I'm sure the rjc version is routed different than what I have. I don't have the instructions anymore for the atr version but I'm pretty sure mine is on wrong. Been that way a long time though.  I need to get some of the hangers fixed and that's probably the only reason it will matter.

Post up some pix of what you have up under there. I bet one of these sharp individuals on here can give some insight.
