Default FRPP GTAs vs Stock GT Mufflers size comparison

I just bought a set of FRPP GTA axle back mufflers from a fellow board member, I was just curious if anyone has a picture or can tell me the size difference between the GTAs and the Stock GT mufflers I am wondering about the actual oval muffler size comparison. I am currenly running Pypes Violators and they're much smaller making the install very easy just curious what I am in store for with the GTAs. As always thanks for your help

i replaced my stock exhaust with
gta's. as i recall, the sizes are very
similar and the ease of installing the
gta's, would be nearly identical as if you
were simply uninstalling the stockers and
then reinstalling them....

I can probably say with some confidence that installing the bolts for the muffler hangers will be tight sincethey werea little difficult to get to when I removed my stock mufflers to put the FRPP Stingers (GT's) on. Not too bad, though, with the right tools.

I have had my stock mufflers on and off a couple times, so I know whatI am up against, Iwas hoping the GTA were alittle shorter, that back hangerright above the muffler is a knuckle breaker.

yeah they are only slightly smaller. and there is only a slight sound difference vs stock as well.. until you put on an o/r pipe anyway.

If you can, use a 13mm gearwrench for the hanger brackets,quite easy with that.
