Actually the joke when I was young was chrome plated muffler bearings. The donut shaped seal that goes between a cast exhaust manifold and the crossover pipe or downpipe on duals was sometimes listed as an exhaust bearing or even muffler bearing in literature. It allows the motor mounts to absorb vibration by letting the engine move yet keeps the exhaust sealed, thus a bearing. So "real" mechanics would chide "hot rod kids" about hi-po chrome plated muffler bearings.
Of course the hot rod kids use headers which will usually leak unless you use solid mounts or pre-load the stock ones with chains and turnbuckles. All that on their way to low 9s on an open C clip 10 bolt.Last edited by RockJustRock; January 11, 2014, 08:34 AM.My hobby is needing a hobby.
