Looks good. Appears to be repackable and therefore free flow as much as you want. It's 1 1/2 diameter. My pipe is 1 3/4. Check your header pipe. If it fits.... Then try it.

Armando do you plan to do a tape wrap on your header pipe if swapping to a stainless silencer? I love the look of the stainless and the anti corrosion would be great but it might look dull or out of place if connecting to your stock chrome pipe.    Just a thought!

Hmm strange- I've got almost 9k but I've had blueing since early on. Always fairly spirited with my throttle and for a long time it had the stock lean Electra setup. May have burned hotter?
