I have read through all the threads on what is right and what is wrong and I still believe that there is NO definite answer to this problem and I think I can prove it without a doubt.
Fact is, there are 4 sizes of tips, as posted by 71440GTX on Fri Oct 17, 2008, they are
3466110 - Roadrunner/GTX w/440-6 & Hemi (cars with resonators)
3466113 - Charger w/440-6 & Hemi (cars with resonators)
3466122 - Roadrunner gtx
3466123 - Charger
I am unsure if the part number descriptions are correct but at this time let us say that they are correct
In the order from the listing above, here are the pics of each of those tips:
I can safely say "Houston we have a problem", as most of you know I have a true original 71GTX that I bought from the original owner that is a time piece when it comes to looking at it. My car was parked by 1976 when the owner could not afford the gas and insurance at this time. Almost 30yrs later I have the chance and I do purchase the GTX from the original owner and we spent 3 months talking about the car from the day he ordered it to the day he sold it to me. I heard it all and I was excited to hear about it. I still cannot believe he removed 2 tires that were flat and put 2 of the original Rallye wheels with the original factory installed tires on the car, he still had them in the storage shed from 1972 when he removed them. He said his brother stole or borrowed the other 2 and does not believe they are still around. To this day I still could not believe it. When it comes to the exhaust, my car has its original exhaust from the manifolds to the tips.
Here is a pic of my tips on my car and then look at the following pics of other X cars including the black one that won OE a few years ago. Then look at the 72's I have included, yes I already know that they may have been changed but look at the tips carefully, especially the yellow GTX which I think is original and the Black 72 which I also think is original.
I may be wrong but I don't think so, I still believe that 71-72 GTX and possibly RR's received both the long and short tips.
I know Eric hates the long tips thinks they do not belong on the GTX or RR but I gotta say you are wrong....
Like I said, this is my opinion but I feel that it is correct because my survivor has them.Eric wrote:These are the correct length tips for a non-resonator car (they are reproductions, not NOS). If your are longer, they're for a Charger and will look stupid!
If any members here on the NEST own any of the cars I posted pics of, please tell us about the tips on your car.....
Unsure about this one but .....
I am going to try to contact the owner of this car, it was just on Ebay and see if he could send me a few pics of the tips and exhaust and see if they are original or not.
