James, exhaust systems for antique cars are not a perfect science as you can probably imagine. The cars are not exactly what they were when they were new and the patterns may not be either. I don't think anybody gets Perfection all the time. In my experience Waldron's fixes things that aren't right and is usually right more often than wrong. I have used Classic Auto exhaust in the past they were good too. I generally use Waldron because they're easy to communicate with and they do what they say. I don't think you're ever going to get away with an exhaust system from a Faraway place that hangs on your car like butter the hobby doesn't work like that.

I also know a several people who have used them and were not.
The issue here in Northern California is that a lot of the shops really hate it if they have to re-bend someone else’s work. They also charge a lot for the pleasure.
If a Waldron system is off, it adds a lot of money to the cost and that is after waiting the 3 months for Waldron to get it out to me.
That is why I am looking to see if there are any alternatives or not.

James, I have had good luck with Waldron Exhaust. They have most of the patterns for most domestic cars. They built complete systems for my 300F and 56 Cadillac.

Hi All,
What are the general recommendations on exhaust for a non-ram 300K?
Right now, the car has a kludge of an exhaust system. The header pipe on the driver side is nearly resting on the torsion bar and they are regular steel. The system back is aluminized and the entire system front to back is welded. It is also way too loud.
From what I can see in the parts book the 300K non-ram used the “power-pack” exhaust system.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
