Beetle on jack stands

Here's my 68 street-strip Beetle on jackstands.

Just installed a CSP-JPM Wasp Stage 2 header, which is a stepped header (1 5/8" to 1 3/4" to 2").

I'm now sorting out the tailpipe and muffler set-up...would like to cut the current A1 Magnaflow to fit, but will probably have to reverse the muffler to the left side (#2 header pipe is now in the way).

The Berg engine support bar won't fit (#3 header pipe is in the way), so I'll have to figure out a custom attachment point. I'm thinking about cutting off a stock '69 bus moustache bar attachment and welding to the Berg bar, which will have to hang lower. Otherwise, might need a Kafer Cup bar.


The #2 pipe winds its way down and blocks the space where the A1 Magnaflow muffler used to hang:


Berg engine support now contacts the #3 pipe without even being tightened up to the engine case:
