Echo Tips.....?????

Is there a board member that sells Echo Tips for the tailpipes? If so, let me know.

Thanks,
Greg

C'mon Shane, Echo pipes! Same thing. They are like 16" long and are 3"-4" round.

My brother used to roll a 76 Malibu with dual glasspacks with echo pipes.

Yep, Zumo is on the right track. Echo tips, echo pipes, echo chambers.....they're all the same thing I guess. They sure do make some really nice tones.

Re: Echo Tips.....?????

I think it's a Texas thing. Probably over half the trucks in the high school parking lot had them.

Summit is your source.

Re: Echo Tips.....?????

I know most places here in TX carry them, and so does the shop where I live (but he was a little too proud of his work/parts-$$$).

I was thinking of taking this project on myself and was trying to keep the business here w/the brethren of this board.

Know what I mean?!

Re: Echo Tips.....?????

If this is just a chrome extension, usually a 3in tip about 12in to 20in long, you should be able to get those at any muffler shop. I know I can go to any shop in town and they have them hanging on the wall, in different cut ends, strait, slash, and square tips and in long or short lengths. I would think any shop should have them.
