Put A muffler on a Deuce

[Haven alot of fun]

I love my hearing so I put a muffler on my deuce.
What do you guy think.
I now the sound of the deuce sound good but I would like to here when I'am
99 years old and still kicking.
It is a stright threw muffler 8" x 30 ".
It fit threw were the other muffler was.
Mounted a bracket off the brace to help hold it on.
It cost me about $150.00
I thought it was worth it.
Here som pic.

Looks good. Pretty common mod, lots of us are using a Napa muffler. Search deuce and muffler, plenty of info out there.

With the D turbo and napa muffler, M35 is pretty quiet, as compared to other trucks.

Put A muffler on a duece?

That takes away half of the fun

mufflers are a good option. on other hand i keep putting a "C" turbo on everything and straight piping what i can get away with that sounds good still

guess im trying to make sure every neighbor knows im there. or just making sure you aint sneeking out with my trucks

 

[Big CASE]

it looks weird on there , but if you like it that is all that counts

Has anyone found any kind of valve for exhaust ? What I'd like to do is run a muffler and pipe out of the back of mine kind of like a gasser, but keep my stock setup for looks and be able to swing a valve to make the old exhaust still work from time to time. Anyone know anything that would work, not to familiar with that kind of thing.

 

[Big CASE]

yep.. you need to see a hotrod shop for the valve . they us them on headers on race cars and hotrod cars all the time .

Try a Google search using ... exhaust cut out valve

 

[StrykerPez]

JC Whitney sells em. Not sure of the diameter though.

M50 water tankers had that valve. They can direct exhaust heat through the water tank to prevent freezing.

Ferro has one of these and we are going to mod his 109 up with one. Looks like it should work

any idea where we could get more?

This is the tanker truck where the diverter valve came from.
You should be able to fabricate one, pretty basic, really.

Jegs perfomance warehouse has dumps with a cable operated valve. Mufflers are ok if thats what you like but I would rather be a little hard of hearing than give up the sound of my deuce with the whistler and open pipes.

 

[TacticalDoc]

does it do anything to the power?
I have a C turbo which is loud but I just put my ear plugs in or keep the right window up

You will regret that when you actually do have hearing damage. Trust me. Being only 36 and hard of hearing just because I wanted to hear the guns go off and and thought that hot rod exhaust on my Jeep sounded cool. Having to ask people to repeat things or asking them to speak up sucks.

Check out a heavy duty truck parts house. that type exhust valve set up is used on dump trucks to heat the bed to keep wet loads from freezing in the bed and hanging up. Not sure of the pipe sizes that would be avalable.

my budys deuce came with a mufler stuffed under the truck and a stock stack quieter and looked stock unless you knew

 

[Haven alot of fun]

No it does not seem to have any efect on power. because it a stright threw muffler.and I can talk to the person seating next to me with the right window open.

 

[badgmc56]

KsM715, I know what your saying but I have been in the automotive and truck repair business for 35 years and my hearing fairs just fine. The sound of guns hurt your hearing not the sound of a deuce.
