Cat exhaust Leaks
I had some leaks in my heads which DD (8v92) took care of I got a
muffler custom made as BB did not havve the part. looking into the
muffler there was not much to it, I would be surpized if my Bird
would move much faster without it. I used a truck repair place to
handle replacing the parts that DD did not. Palm Beac Spring in west
palm beach, Fl
