Title: Baffles
Post by: Benandsally on August 20, 2010, 12:02:57 PM

Hello to 1 and all,
I am a new member just signed up to your site NSW Corvettes Unlimited because I know or hope that there will be helpful people hear to help me out and also due to the fact that i just purchased a Black 1971 Corvette 454 Auto in the USA and as I speak is crossing the seas on its way to Queensland.
I have also purchased a set of Hooker Headers and am after a set of baffles 4". I have heard of SPIRAL baffles in states but cost $355 and nearly just the same to ship 'em.
Does any body know of were i can purchase a set here ?
I live in Sydney
Thanks and hello again    :shades:

I have heard that the truck exhaust mobs can do something for us as they deal with the 4in exhaust stuff.

I have just purchased hooker headers,side pipes and glass packed baffles from Rocket Industries for a 1978 corvette SB. Service is excellent. it only took 3 weeks from place of order to delivery.

I have a complete brand new standard 2.5" exhaust system for sale if you need to purchase something to get it registered. It is for a 454 auto, 1973 which will fit your car. Maybe someone else could be interested if you are not. There are no exhaust tips.

Curious how much did Rocket charged for a set of Hookers???

I have also bought from Rocket. I recieved the items the day after I called them. Excellent to deal with.

I'm pretty sure rocket dont have those baffles? (I could be wrong), 77CVT are you saying youve seen truck exhaust places that sell spiral baffles?

Nah Andy, but I thought they'd be a good place to start.
