If you want a classic muscle car sound, why not use a classic muscle car muffler? These mufflers sound amazing, and are by far my favorite.



Aluminum is not a good choice as its melting point is too close to exhaust temps. I already looked into it. IMO aluminum would only work if the mufflers were behind the axle, to give the exhaust time to cool before reaching them. If you can weld aluminum and stainless, you can also look into making them out of titanium. It'll cost a bit more, but materials and your labor would probably no more than buying a pre-made muffler. You'd get the strength and heat resistance of steel and the weight of aluminum that way. When the time comes for my project's exhaust I plan to take one of my Classic Chamber mufflers to a local shop that does titanium work and have them duplicated as I'm building mine to be as light as possible. Titanium mufflers will be pricy, but will weigh about 35 percent of the weight of stainless mufflers, which will be some pounds. I asked Classic Chamber about making me a set from titanium but they are unable to do so.
