RE: [Chrysler300] 300 C and D exhaust systems

["John L. Chesnutt" <chesnutt@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

The correct Mufflers for the 300 C & D coupes are MOPAR Sono 6-X, not the
Sono 4-X.
The body of the 6-X is 34 inches and total length is 39 inches. The Sono 4-X
body is 29 inches and total length is 33 1/2 inches. I have both Mopar Sono
mufflers in my basement which I checked the measurements.

We have the Sono 6-X on our original 1957 300C which will need replacing
soon. We purchased our 300C in July 1958.

Hi Marv -

Can we assume that the C and D hardtop's exhaust pipes are the same ? Based
on the title of your email, I would assume so. But just want to verify.

Thanks,

Ron
