- Exhaust System Install Tips and Tricks
We give you exhaust system install tips and tricks for your Fairlane or Torino. While we work on our exhaust system with Precision Exhaust, we trial fit the front have of the exhaust. We review clamps for the exhaust system that will allow for the system to be removed when needed. We discuss needing a station wagon or Ranchero factory dual exhaust tail pipe section to get a correct factory bend.

He does answere the tech questions. I have asked many.
It's all true. =)
And...... THIS is where "Mechanicing" turns more into SCIENCE!! I'm impressed.
Thanks!
Really enjoy all your videos on each forum
Thank you for the knowledge and the entertainment
You, Cam and the crew....... fantastic job
Hey Jeff! Great info for this custom "Odd-Body". It's all part of working on cars.
True that! Hoping that I can move the ball forward for the Rancheros and wagons.
Happy St Patrick’s Day! Thanks for the content - love the clamps - I may be able to use those new my 71 Chevy Caprice restoration :)
And happy St. Patricks day to you! You are welcome! More to come!
I'm really enjoying this Fairlane wagon build. I'm currently swapping in a 302/AOD in my 63 Mercury Meteor. Fun at every turn!😉The AOD is snug in the tunnel, the top 2 bellhousing bolts are real tight in there. Good stuff in your videos.
Love those band clamps. They're great for DIY exhaust systems.
Love the screen name Mao.
Interesting video. thanks.
Hey Jeff....hope all is well and you and your family is safe.
thanks for giving us motorheads a little info and entertainment in these times
that's all wanted to say ...
stay safe guys
We are great! Thanks for asking...though I kinda wish I had invested in paper products on the stock market...hope you and yours are all well.
Jeff I just found out a few minutes ago that Mustangs Unlimited after 44 years of being in business has gone out of business. Man that really bites. They always had what I needed for my 67 Mustang. I know that this does not have anything to do with this video ,but I thought that the word needed to get out there for the folks who did not know about this.
That is sad. I knew that they had struggled for a good while.
Jeff yeah it is. I wonder what happened to all of the parts that they had in their warehouse.? I hope someone like NPD or CJ Pony parts bought them out.
I really enjoy your videos. I hope somebody can get you info about the factory dual system. 👍
Really cool. I'm going to be doing exhaust on the Fairmont soon (my first) that exhaust pipe cutter may be key for me!
Good luck!
I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but what wheels are those. And what size? I think they would look great on my 68 Mustang and if I am able to weather this virus, I'd like to get some.

So the trans cross member is what gave you the excessive 4.5* CL driveline down angle. (U joints)
Not modifying the floor pan has caused another situation.
Is the engine perched on 302 mounts? If it were then the factory angles/ clearances would be there.
Just thinking.
Actually it's a tunnel that's the biggest problem. It next down pretty severely at the back of the transmission and that's what's causing the problem. The 4 R 70 W transmission has a vent tube in the very top center of the output housing. This vent tube is also colliding with the floor pan. We could go in and use different motor mounts but most guys aren't going to want to spend the two to $300 on a set of custom motor mounts for this application. Like Dad always told me there's more than one way to skin a cat. This is just the way we choose to go at this point.
I got a tech question for you, my 85 vette the idler started squeaking today. would you replace the entire assembly or just the pulley. I've always replaced the whole assembly. The spring assembly is working perfect nice and tight. I'm afraid if I buy an after market puelly it won't fit tight and I'll issues down the line...
Idler pulley bearings are usually easily replaceable, and inexpensive.
Hi Jeff, What about the 1972-79 Ranchero, Any problems with running the exhaust on them?
The 72+ are full frame cars. Totally different chassis. Almost nothing in common. Modern transmissions clear well.
I did a 72 wagon recently.
Also failed to say I've done a couple 72+ Rancheros also.
I would have to look at it but I don't think it's really an issue like hot rod is saying Dave does not right now have an exhaust system for these vehicles either.
Just put your car on your at home lift!! 😂
