by Cdcracing Wed Mar 12, 2014 1:38 pmPlaning on putting some patriot dual side pipes on my 61 econo van . It the regular short van not the long one . I'm off on a job out of state and been buying parts to fix van up when I get home . Want to order dual side pipes but not for sure the length to get . Does anybody have them on there van and what's the length your using ? Thanks for any info .

I'm not running side pipes but do you need a measurement since you're out of town?

60" with the front tubes carefully cut and welded to remove 1.5" of length. Now they fit perfect.

I/ve Really, Really been toying w/ the idea to bolt up a set of (only) those type . calling up on them i thought the sizes were either too short or long, and if they bcould cut to size would they mount normally w/patriots hardware or as much as these old vans rattle would you need a lot of more support hardware ,to keep them from rattling loose ? .also other problem is , i am not in to looks and not funtional.to where ,i think they could make it totally muscle car look , but with my 153 orig four banger ,no telling how the sound would be ,(good or terrible) .anybody heard a stock 4 cylinder no headers , just stock exhaust split off into 2 sidepipes? if you get a few minutes give me a holler sometime , would love hear more of the install , (and see a few more views) , danny 502 432 3684
