I'm going to ship it in a "game board box" through straight U.S. mail. I shipped one that way two years ago last October to a guy in Ohio and it worked out fine, IE the cost wasn't too bad (I don't remember the exact cost, I just remember not being bothered by it, which is probably why I don't remember the cost).

Thank you for bringing this up though because this does bring up another potential issue that needs to be addressed. That resonator fit said box only because it didn't have too much pipe in front of it, IE it didn't have the combersome, leak prone, impossible to deal with nightmare clamp hardware on it. Both the buyer and myself agreed that we prefer that area welded instead of clamped anyways so it wasn't an issue for him, but it may be for JP. If it is I'll have to sell him the one from my 4-matic (same exact part number and only about 10,000 more miles on it) which still has it's mounting hardware on the front. Then I'll have to ship it "normally" and adjust the price accordingly. Basically, it will have to be $35 plus shipping.

I'm really sorry I didn't think to mention this earlier but I just figured everybody is like me (and the Ohio guy) and just welds (or has) that thing welded in, especially since the other side has to be welded in anyways. (Stuff like this is why I taught myself how to weld.)

As I mentioned in my privious post I don't hardly do any selling of anything over the internet. Ironically, that last resonator that I sold over two years ago was the last thing I sold on the net! (Same exact part number too!) I have several of these things because I'm always removing them in my search for more power!
