1970 Cuda AAR and Challenger T/A Complete Exhaust System
Chrysler built the 1970 AAR Cuda and Challenger T/A to homologate them for Trans-Am racing, and their exhaust is one of the details that sets them apart: the mufflers dump ahead of the rear wheels and exit through chrome tips in front of the tires. Reproducing that routing correctly is essential on a restoration, and a mismatched or homemade system is one of the first things a knowledgeable judge will spot.
A complete system
This kit includes the head pipes, mufflers, tip extensions, hangers and straps. Buying it as one system means the pieces are designed to fit together, and the hangers and straps are part of the package rather than an afterthought sourced from a parts counter.
Before you install
This is a high value restoration part, so take time to inspect the car first. Check the exhaust manifolds and the body mounting points for rust or damage, since an exhaust system can only hang as straight as what it bolts to. Hang every component loosely, set the tips at the correct position ahead of the rear wheels, then tighten from front to back.
If your car is a regular 340 Cuda or Challenger without the AAR or T/A package, this is not the right system. The routing and side exit tips are specific to these two cars.
