It looks like B&B tips to me. I had B&B mufflers years ago, junk!!

B&B headers are ok though if you use the 1 5/8" for 3.2 and 1 3/4" for 3.6 up

Here is mine. I completely disagree about the quality. Mine have been great and I run them with a cat bypass for a lot more noise.

You are entitled to your opinion, but I went through a B&B muffler every year for 5 years. I fianlly had enough of their junk and moved on. When they first started up you called and got Bill Sr and great service, as they got bigger their service dropped like a rock, their muffler quality never was there.

I suppose that all these years later they may have gotten their act together but I sincerly doubt it. The last muffler of theirs that I loked at had aa full 1.75" drivers dside outlet, the passener side externally looked the same but if you looked closely it was only ~.3", like I said, junk

I still have their headers and oil coller that I purchased at the same time, these are quality items.

I'm with Bill. The mufflers are junk.

The headers are fine.

cat bypass means to me he is running a single in setup. the muffler may not run into the "growing" issues of the dual inlets? All I know is a good percentage of my customers use to have B&B
