  I'm located in central Wisconsin here's my zip if it helps 54494.  UPS isn't really that bad since the muffler casn't weigh more than about ten pounds.  If you need my complete address let me know.  What are you asking for it?  Thanks, Will.

UPS doesn't want the business of little individuals like me, so I use USPS.  I'll ask Monday if I can just wrap it with cardboard, or if I need a box.  I'm assuming you want the header, but let me know either way.

I have no idea of value- make me an offer i can't refuse (after we know what postage will be).

Don't know if it's in my profile, but you can e-mail me direct at

Well folks, that didn't happen.  So- if anyone wantws a muffler and header for $132 delivered, let me know.

Couldn't find the original price, but I assumed that was a deal.  If that's too much- somebody let me know. ?

  Yuo definitely got a deal.  Wish the mounting system for the iron barrel was as sturdy as the AVL's wouldn't have absolutely trashed the chrome on mine with the kicker.  Will.

Will -

I have a stock bazooka in my garage - 2006 vintage, no dings.  PM me an offer if you still need a muffler.

Hmmm- that guy on eBay only wants $21 for shipping.  How does he do that? 
I was thinking $100 for my set would be a good deal.  I guess I need to re-think all that.

I sell on Ebay, and shipping is really cheap.  I know a lot of you guys hate it, but UPS can be a deal for large items compared to USPS.  For instance, I just shipped a one-piece bass clarinet (around the length of the stock muffler) from Idaho to New York for $20 flat, and the clarinet and case weighed 23 lbs in a 42/7/9 inch box.  Small items, go USPS.  Large items, go UPS every time.

UPS is far cheaper for larger items. Cheaper yet if you make sure to cut the box down to a size no larger than absolutely necessary.

For just the muffler, USPS quoted me $16.  Add the header for another $16.
We used to use UPS, but they have pretty much made it clear they only want business accounts now.  We just weren't doing enough shipping.  Bye-bye.

Same with eBay;  I used to do OK, and have a 100% rating, but the fees have gotten out of control IMO.  I admire anyone who can make money there.

Better hang onto that muffler and headers, Unk. The North Carolina Gestapo may someday start MC emissions.

I don't know... Hard to imagine folks here would let any politician get away with "going California".  Maybe new stuff, but they'd never get away with anything retroactive.

I have a feeling, it would also depend on who does your inspection.  When I lived out there, I had a hot-rod '66 Volvo station wagon (just try to imagine that!).  The inspection garage would lean it out and go get a test, then bring it back and make it run right again.  Just a way to give more money to the state.

Saw an OEM bazooka on eBay for sell I think for $ 130 complete with rust spot. I think I would try to install a water pipe ,before paying that price.
Difference between UPS and USPS, is your location. I can't afford UPS, they don,t give good deals on shipping remote.USPS is the best deal for me ,then FedEx.

"Going California"? You are crazy if you trust those crooks in Raleigh.
Notice how they record your mileage when you get an inspection now? They are experimenting with a mileage tax in Raleigh. They have 240 cars in the experiment now.
Metering of private wells?
Highest gas tax in the south?
NC state government is corrupt and I wouldn't put anything past them if they could make a buck on it.
CBS, NBC etc made a big thing about Berkley's mandating spaying and neutering  of dogs. Guess which Western NC city beat them to it?
San Francisco East? Just a few miles up the road.

I am keeping my old system, just in case.

Will,
Did you find a silencer yet? You can get a new one from CMW (144193) for $175.00, that would qualify you for free shipping.  ;)

I was going to ship a muffler AND header with 15 miles on them for $140.   Whoever got in touch said that was too much money.  Tough crowd here  ::)

 I have one. I was going to keep it and I'm not sold on selling it but I see the RH shift conversion is on sale and if I could maybe sell a few things....well.
 
 Just the muffler. Maybe 12-1300 miles on it. I can take a pic (no mounting bracket, I used it on my current muffler)
