I was looking at my assembly manual. If you hook a tape measure on the bottom edge of the bumper and measure back, to the rear edge of the exhaust tip, it should measure 2 7/16&quot;. The tip should be 7/8&quot; below the bumper. Your dimensions may vary. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/wink.gif[/img]

Thanks for all the comments guys, appreciate it.

Since the exhaust itself essentially broke the piggy bank I will probably have to wait until the lottery comes in to get the smog setup. Manifolds have the plugs in them for now.

Well Keith, guess I should have checked my own AIM for those measurements - thanks buddy. My measurements are about 2 9/16&quot; and 1&quot; respectively. I can live with that [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif[/img]

Don, I doubt that the factory spec was any closer. Looks great.
