Dead animal guts melted onto my Exhaust....

The last few days my cars been making a pretty foul smelling smell when she warms up and the other day I noticed something on the exhaust didnt have time to check so I dismissed it as nothing today I get under there and look its still there... its like a plasticy clear amber stuff... i start picking at it and its on there good i pick some more and it starts to peal off and theres like red swirls and thick spots in it! I think its some sorta animal guts! EWWWWWWWW its on my first presilencer all over it after the header.... wtf man... its fuggin gross! Damn dead animals! No I didnt kill it I just wasnt in the mood to swerve at 3am driving home late a few nights ago... now I gotta clean this **** off...

yes that does look like animal guts, the clear stuff is the mucous membrane, and the red stuff is the lining+blood.

wonder why it only got on your exhaust??? what does it smell like, barbecue?

Well the exhaust on my car is an 1" or 2" lower than the next lowest point on my car so it musta rubbed whatever it was that was layin the road...

Now the bad part... I CANT GET IT OFF! its solidified to my exhaust like an epoxy and even w/ a knife i can hardly get at it! Anybody kno any cleaners that can loosen the **** up?

Now I want to use my exhaust on the 7 for a grill. Boy that'd really be cool.

my idea over heat the exhaust system by idling it for 30 minutes or so without moving. should cook that **** right off. Thats the lazy mans way.

Is that your fake transmission mount and ghetto rigged wiring I see there? Looks fairly effective.

You could torch the guts off. I'd just leave it there till it cooks off by itself.

Yep thats exactly what your seeing in that picture, altho u can see the mount does sag a wee bit so I think in a day or two im gonna double up on the 2 plates that constitue the mount... Also if i let the clutch up fast sometimes i can hear it clang.... not sure if its a good clang or a bad clang or what exactly is clanging...
