Alright, can anybody tell me where I might fine the "British style" mufflers like the ones MikesXS sells? I believe they can also be called "peashooters", but not the Commando type. Mike is out until July - can't wait till July to get new ones. 1.5" OD neede to mate to the head-pipes. Any help is appreciated!

Buy the Walnecks Classic Cycle Trader,it's loaded with British parts suppliers but be prepared to pay top dollar for those mufflers but the quality of the craftmanship would most likely be much superior, Just look for the Brit signia and not a Rice Bowl with Chop Sticks............Jack

Here's what worked: I bought some MAC headpipes - they are longer than stock - and then found a pair of EMGO mufflers for a Bonneville. These are actual replicas. Turns out they fit perfect and sound killer! So, thanks to Jack for the advice. The MAC pipes were from MikesXS by the way. A friend to us all!
