You got that right! I was looking around for one, but can't find anyone selling them in Stainless. And making those from scratch is way out of my league. Would love to find some.

Make your own. You got a welder and a chop saw. Hammer, hack saw, what else do you need?

Maybe something similar to this could be something to work with.

that would be way too long. just the 6" fish tail is all that's needed.

You've got the talent. Just find an old one and cipher on it for a bit and have at it. Use some old exhaust pipe to do a mock up til you get it how you want it and then go with the stainless.
It's just metal- make it fit.

i have strait fishtails on my shovel. the noise coming from them is ridiculous......i like it. i had to weld up a couple of lollipops to get some back pressure. without them there was no low end power. the exhaust noise wasn't any less with the lollipops, well , none that i could hear.

Well yeah, but if a long piece is cheap then you just chop off what is not needed then recycle it on another project

I've got a pair of Khrome Werks baffles to put in these when the time comes. I'll be interested to see how it sounds. I'm hoping for "robust", but not completely "anti-social".
