To gut a glass pack muffler, first, remove it from the exhaust system by unbolting or cutting it out. Then, use a saw or cutting tool to carefully open the muffler casing along its length. Remove the internal packing material and baffles, leaving just the outer shell. Finally, reassemble the muffler by sealing it back up if desired, or simply install it back into the exhaust system as is.
Sure.
The muffler doesn't have much to do with emissions. Some jurisdictions prohibit glass packs for noise reasons, but the exhaust going into the muffler is pretty much chemically identical to that going out. If a vehicle doesn't pass the emissions test with a glass pack muffler, it almost certainly wouldn't have passed with any other type of muffler either.
No Texas Law requires a muffler it doesnt matter wether its a flowmaster mffler or a cherry bomb glass pack i got two on my truck and passes inspection every year.
Glass pack muffler is a term used to describe a muffler configuration that uses a "pack" or lining made of fiberglass strands to reduce and dampen exhaust noise. The "glass" cannot be "broken" like a pane of glass. Over a period of time the individual strands will deteriorate due to thermal expansion/contraction, harsh exhaust corrosive gases, and road shock. This will lead to a louder exhaust note but reduced back pressure.
Yes, you can. But its pointless because a glssspack is a muffler. Just have a glasspack installed. Or a full catback glasspack exhaust system installed
Original muffler location best, but I advise against. They are called glass packs because they are packed with fibreglass which burns out leaving you a hollow shell. they are also usually the cheapest quality mufflers you can buy.
Yes, glass pack mufflers are legal in Arizona, but they must comply with the state's noise regulations. Arizona law prohibits excessive noise from vehicles, which can include loud exhaust systems. If a glass pack muffler causes your vehicle to exceed the noise limits set by local ordinances, you could face penalties. It's essential to check specific local laws and regulations for any additional requirements.
No, it is not possible to break a glass pack with water. Glass packs are designed to be durable and resistant to breakage. Adding water to a glass pack will not cause it to break.
Yah, they have 6-pack abs!
No, it is not recommended to pack glass items in your checked luggage as they may break during handling. It is safer to pack them in your carry-on luggage instead.
