Yah the # Mark provided got lots of hits via Google. Maybe some were for
Canadian websites.

Didn't know the DV mount at the pan was double size. Assumed (from ETKA)

The exhaust *was* mounted to the engine, but it recently "suffered" a

Part of the thrust of this post was to find an easily available, (at a

Good to know that the glasspack muffler works Scott. ( I assume that's what
you were referring to. In part)
