I'm looking for a right front exhaust pipe for a Lark type with a full flow V-8. The part number I found is 1555729. The guy that did my exhaust did a really crappy job on the front pipe using the old flange and a few inches of old pipe which had been replaced with a universal flange at some time. Now the pipe is rotten at the flange and I hate exhaust leaks. I really just need a pipe for a pattern since the rest of the exhaust is 2.25 inch. I just acquired a bender that I can replicate the pipe with and I'm sure I can make a custom piece, but I would love for it to resemble the stock pipe.

The right side should be relatively easy to replicate and bend up. It's the left side headpipe that sucks, to be polite, since it loves to play 'kissy face' with the steering relay rod unless just 'right'.--------------------------------------

Borrowed Bams50's sigline here:
"Do they all not, by mere virtue of having survived as relics of a bygone era, amass a level of respect perhaps not accorded to them when they were new?" -
I got a pair of the exhaust head pipes from Parks Pipes. Fit was good & would have been a 10 minute job if the studs on the right side hadn't broken off.59 Lark wagon, now V-8, H.D. auto!
