I'm looking at subframe connectors.....saw the MMFF article on Scott Hoag's Bullitt. Apparently on that project they delayed the installation of the subframe connectors...they decided to install/test the fit the exhaust before installing the subframes.

Is this common on most projects, and should I consider getting an exhaust system before looking at subframe connectors?

 

I installed my subs before my exhaust, no issues with mine.

 

Coolio.....that's what I had thought...the article(MMFF Feb 06 pg 158) had thrown me for a loop.

I might need to re-read it to see if he's running a side exhaust or something.

 

Only think I could think of that would affect the exhaust might be some sort of cross bracing that connect the left and right sides, but I've not seen any subframe connectors like that. Or a panhard set up, mine required some twisting and tweaking to get the exhaust off of the panhard. But strictly subs, I don't see how exhaust would be affected, unless it was a side exit!
