<VV> Muffler hangers and shields

[Stephen Upham]

Well, I finally got the headless bolt that goes through the brace for  
the A/C compressor out.  Only took an hour.  I'm preparing to install  
factory type muffler hangers on the right and left.  I have a 110,  
but am using the dual exhaust setup.  My hand was forced on this as  
the muffler kept coming loose at the exhaust log and eventually  
caused enough back and forth to break the rubber on the FLAPS hanger  
(used to get the car on the road last summer) and the muffler exhaust  
side hit the street although it didn't come off of the log.  I was  
able to use pipe cleaners twisted together to nurse it to a FLAPS  
about two blocks away.  I purchased electrical wire and with that,  
was able to make it back to my garage.

Anywho, I'm looking at the heat shields for the left and the right.   
The right side shield has a place to put an additional strap around  
the muffler to secure it, on the other side though, there are two  
places for bolts with the nuts welded in place and the spacing is 3  
1/2 inches apart.  I can't figure out what they attach to.  On the  
left hand side, the shield has the same configuration, but the places  
for the bolts are 2 1/2 inches apart.  Again, I can't see anything on  
the engine that they might attach to.

Need help as I'm trying to ready the car for a show next weekend and  
I only have a little time today and MAYBE Tuesday, Thursday, and  
Friday nights to pull this off while trying to take care of my three  
year old!
