Back in 86 I needed a set of mufflers for the Ambo. Not wanting to drop big dollars I bought a pair of 3" dia. glass packs from J C Whitney for under $30. I welded reducers front and back then welded them directly to the header pipes. The reducers on the back were simply for looks. A coat of high temp black paint and they were done.

Performance is great and the sound is very nice. Twenty years later they're still on the bike!!

If you think about it, a glass pack is nothing more than a perforated straight pipe wrapped in fiberglass.
