Re: Thrush Silencer
4, where did you get that? I don't believe they were marketed in this country, which is probably why you have not come across any ads for them. I think they were made for the European small car crowd, but don't quote me on it.

Re: Thrush Silencer
Somewhat similar to a resonator I once had.
It measured out @28"long and had 4-1/2" diameter. The pipe itself had a 2-1/2" ID in the front,w/a 2" ID in the rear.

Re: Thrush Silencer
They were made in Ontario at the Rexdale plant, made to reduce noise on the street .
I save catalogs and assorted items from when my brother worked there. he still has T shirts packaged , belt buckles and I think hats. a special pair of straight thrush mufflers that are chrome plated . I have been looking for a good pair of Thrush side kicks for my Buick.
