I remember driving behind a bunch of later urethane bumper cars and the bumper covers were discolored from tail pipe heat. Yuck. .

You guys realize the 78-81 Camaros ran urethane bumpers, right?

Like I said, if someone wants to try to run the tails close to a rear urethane bumper, try it. .

I have run tails close to the bumper on several urethane T/As and Camaros, and have yet to melt anything. They weren't stock low compression cars with cats and multiple mufflers either.
But, I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

So the split tips were added in '75 after problems with the '74 overheating the bumper? I never noticed any problems with mine.

The Camaro pipes hung like a baseball pitch. Low and inside.

75 Formula
Mine came like this. 80k km. No melting of the urethane lower bumper valance. When I put a new full exhaust on it, I will try to replicate the look. If my Formula would have come with the splitters, I would replicate that look. No matter what, the exhaust has to come out from underneath the body.

the only 75's that had splitters were the trans ams with the 455 engines, the other cars had a single pipe on each side similar to the 74!
