It probably had stock or cheap stock replacements during filming. Classic Industries has a stock system with turndowns which would probably be close to what it had, but the FM50s are not so aggressive that they are probably very close.

 FlowMaster is nothing like what the GL had. Including the sound on top of the fact they weren't made in that time frame. You really have 2 choices stock or glass-packs. Which glass-packs are a known GL muffler, especially once the cars were standardized some. Wither Lee 1 had stock or glass-packs the sound used during the show for Lee 1, is glass-pack.

The scene when LEE1 pulls into the Boars Nest is probably it if you can actually hear it (i havent watched it in a while so i can't remember)

When Lee 1 is jumping Rosco, you can hear in the background the popping of glass-packs  :2thumbs: Faint which would mean real, not daubed in. As in later jumps (same video) where its really clear, visible and loud glass-pack sound.

I love  :icon_smile_big: exhaust sounds and can identify lots of Brand and series differences LOL. Personally in 5,000 miles I've changed my Chargers 4 time and my truck I've lost count but my wife probably hasn't  :yesnod:

 :cheers:  Takes a lot of readding but you can see the differences in opinions and facts at this sight http://www.cglfc.com/wforum/ No B.S. before starting mine, I read up and goggled every day 1-6 hours for almost two years  :brickwall: This was one of the best one stop places to read up on GL's. The majority of information is there. You will have to just dig through to separate  :pity: There is a guy I believe his name is Bubba as well (no, not Watson) That arguably as a more authentic Lee 1, than the car tittled Lee 1  :yesnod:

:cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :yesnod: :yesnod: Hands Down, this IS The Best sight, to get any help or advice with your Charger  :Twocents: :Twocents: :Twocents:  :yesnod: :yesnod: :2thumbs: :2thumbs:
The previous is for GL facts, not that they couldn't help you and a lot of people are on both. It's Just MHO  :Twocents: in what the two specialize in.  :2thumbs: :2thumbs: :2thumbs: And how I've been helped  :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:

Aren't there jump scenes where you can stop frame it and see whats under the car?

mopar2

Yes, that's where you can clearly see glass-packs  :yesnod:. But knightprowler wants Lee 1 and the video is very dark  :shruggy: Maybe on the DVD you could see better and is a good idea  :2thumbs:

Side note I like SS style dumps at the rear corners. Where I'm not anywhere nears any certain car, I found in one episode where they were backing out of an alleyway that had this style  :yesnod: In the first season.

Ghoste

What about LEE1 when it was repainted and used in a different episode, wouldn't it still have the same exhaust?  Or maybe the photos when they dragged it out of the bush?  I don't know.  :shruggy:

mopar2

 :popcrn: Watching the first episode and the one it shows back up in closely on DVD to pause it.  :2thumbs: Looking up the guy I mentioned earlier will have a lot of this covered  :2thumbs:

:iagree:

No problem Knightprowl, thanks for removing that.

On a side note, there is nothing wrong with striving for perfection.
