Well lets see, time, more work, more money? Not your fault because you don't know; but I'm a single income guy trying to build 2 hot rods and all these little things build up (in both time and money) I'm 4 years in and getting real close to the 30K mark. To me it's easier, cheaper, and faster to just grab some aluminum and drill a couple of holes and bolt it on. Hindsight is 20/20 I wish I could have put the mufflers somewhere else but there again the pieces I ordered didn't allow me to move it back farther (Pipes not long enough). I also could have turned the muffler on it's side a bit to get it away from the switch but my OCD says they have to be flat and level (sorry it's in my head and I have to live with it). Even if I wanted to turn the mufflers now, it's too late. If I turn them it will mess up the angle of the tail pipes that I worked days to get even (again my OCD). For once I'm not over engineering it. I could build a small enclosure and hook a computer case fan to it to keep it cool! Your right it is just a couple small sections of line and (for me not most people) a couple hours work. I am slow at everything. Truth be told I'm pushing 50 and I'm just over 400 pounds. I don't get down and up like I used to and in fact the running joke with my buddies is whether or not I'm actually going to fit in the car once it's done.
