914 "F" pipes on a Bug, would it work?

[yetibone]

I had a brainstorm a minute ago. Late model US spec 914 2 litre's have the F shaped head pipes that come out of the heads, and go foreward to the heat exchangers. They have triangular shaped flanges with three bolts that attach to the heat exchangers.

Could those be used in a Bug conversion with two stinger megaphones bolted to those flanges, and exiting out from under the car? Picturing it in my head, I believe the stingers would come out to about the rear bumper, and a few inches outside the cutouts for the peashooter pipes on a stock apron.

Has anybody tried this with any succsess? If so, are there any pix of this setup?
