    Does anyone know how far the chrome exhaust pipe should stick out on a 68 gt350? Where do I measure from on the car to the end of the tip?
    I have studied lots of photos and they seem to line up with the back up lights, but I am not sure.

    Ghost has a new paint job and is now street worthy again. Thanks to everyone on the board for good input.

    I am not certain if there is a Concours spec for this or not. I am sure there probably is. I suggest Clamping the Tip to something under the car and do a "Mock mounting" and put them where they appeal to your eye as you are the one who will see them more than anybody else.

    I've written down 3.5-4.25 in some old notes I have. I measured mine and they are 4" when measured from the top of the valence cut out to the long edge of the tip.
