My dad has a couple of different old header pipes laying around. One I know is a Bassani because it has the big Bassani sticker right on it. I have no idea what it fits though. There is another shorter one but has no markings and it doesn't have the same big open louvered style baffling as the Bassani, the end is capped with just a hole in the middle for the exhaust gases to exit. There are actually two pipes of that style, the short one I just mentioned and then a longer one. I don't remember seeing any markings on these pipes either. Is there any way to know what they fit and what brand they are? Any serial number stamped on them that I'm not seeing? I'll have to get some pics of them sometime.

Get some pictures of the pipes and post them here, the guru's here on the forums can probably identify them for you.

also no other silencer fits Bassani except Bassani unlike all the others such as Cobra silencer will fit on a stock pipe and DG Fits on Cobra etc.

The Bassani looks almost exactly like this one but I think its a little longer.

Is that pipe not a Bassani? I thought only Bassani had the megaphone style exit with the louvered baffles. Maybe I'm wrong.

heres a pic of my bassani headpipe for the 84-85 t3. i havent got the silencer to match...yet...still looking for one though. instead i have an answer hotip silencer but i have to modify the tubing so it connects to the headpipe. it short by like 6 inches, so i am chopping the peice off of my old fmf turbine core 2 off my blaster for the part i need. should work fine.
