[DML] Re: removal

["Scott" <OUTATIME@xxxx>]

Go to a mufler shop and have it cut off. But if you live in a large city
you may have to pass certain emission
control regulations, which would not allow them to do this unless you and
the owner work out something of the books. Or, you can cut it off if you
have the tools and ability to get under the car. The all you'd have to do
is place a piece of pipe in its place. Itstead of all that id reccomend an
aftermarket converter. Unlike the old ones there relativly small and you
can look through them and see light. If your looking for a little more
sound, the legal and environmental way, thats the best way to go. (Old
converters usually have a honey comb type insert with mineral granules
added. Do Not take the plug off! The metal a converter is made of is
required to be heated to enormous teperatures before it can be welded on,
and no JB weld wont fix it.

Just my 2 cents
