ABSTRACT:
An exhaust system for use with the engine (10) of a vehicle. The exhaust system includes a pair of catalytic converters (18) connected to separate exhaust streams, with each catalytic converter (18) including an outlet pipe (22) extending therefrom. A dual inlet muffler (24) includes a pair of inlet pipes (26) spaced to mount to the outlet pipes (22). A slip fit joint (32) connects one of the outlet pipes to an inlet pipe and a ball and flare joint (34) connects the other of the outlet pipes to the other inlet pipe; thus allowing for alignment and proper mounting of the exhaust system to a vehicle.
