Trying to remember. It has been a long time since I did this, but I seem to recall that the loop frame header pipes were not quite long enough for the Tonti mufflers to fit right to the pipe hangar.  I ended up making some adaptors and using automotive muffler clamps to make it fit. Fugly but functional. I think there are differing lengths of the headers pipes across the model line. Or maybe the ones I had were butchered.
