I have a Bonez dual tip muffler on my 84 that I am getting ready to take off and put on a Pacesetter/Monza Exhaust. You can have the Bonez if you pay the shipping. Good luck , GAry
I also have a cat-back set-up from a 1980 car I am parting out. You pay shipping and I'll ship it.
I have a sawzal out in the garage, so if you want just a muffler, you'll get just a muffler,
I think the doc and I are on the same page. either of ours will get you by until you get the right set-up, and it is worth the money.
I would kill for an old-school RB/RE set-up for my car... but they haven't produced any in 10+ years...

Here's an audio clip and three video clips of my car with the RB single outlet header, mini presilencer and a single in/dual out Magnaflow. I think it sounds great, but a little on the loud side.

my RE system was great, but i must say that they were fallible. when i did my first 13B swap, it took out both of the presilencers in one shot. i later gave the rear pan to my best friend and he put it on his 3TC Corolla ...
i just got the RB streetport system and as much as i love it, i still prefer the older design with the slant-cut tips. to me, it even sound a little different - no better, no worse, just different that my brother's original RB system.
oh ... the memories (tearful sign)
