Post subject:  hole in muffler
I noticed this hole today. I figure - if holes were okay, then they would come that way. Also, this whole seems to be in an awkward place, which suggests to me that I may have internal problems. It doesn't look like I banged it on a rock or anything. But, is this whole big enough to worry about replacing the muffler? see pics... Yes it's very dirty - just got back from AZKJ's snow run yesterday. It will be cleaned by the end of the day today...

i havent had my stock muffler for a long time, i got an Edelbrock one, but that hole almost looks like its supposed to be there, as a drain or something. but yea you wouldnt think a muffler should have a hole in it. did it get louder since you noticed that hole?

That hole is suppose to be there, it is a drain hole for the exhaust condensation.

Muffler bearing grease is inserted through the Snorf valve by the intake.

AHh... that's where the snorf valve is... :ROTFL:

On a serious note, yes, that's supposed to be there.

Sorry for the HiJack - If one was to replace the stock (huge) muffler - what would be the best choice for a smaller size unit without going to a 'performance' / low rider sounding exhaust? (I know there are plenty of exhaust threads out there here but they are all based on making a V6 sound like a V8) I have a technical issue - the stock Liberty exhaust hits the 8.25/drive shaft yoke at full flex. What's out there for a smaller/shorter diameter muffler than stock sized but not louder than stock exhaust
