i just bought a set from summit. i got them for $380 and im getting them ceramic coated locally for about $100. save alot of money that way.

im going to make my own 4inch y or h pipe. i ordered the tubing from mac products. you can buy a y pipe for it from some performance shops on the net. here is a link on how to build a simple one.

I'll be buying a set near the end of the summer myself. I'm gonna try and squeeze a true dual 3 inch setup under there w/ a pair of dynomax turbo mufflers

should sound a lot better (louder) than the shorties and flowmaster muffler I have on there now

I have them. The install is pretty hard. O2 extenders, heatshielding, wire relocation, wire lengthening, and over-the-valve-cover spark plug wires are required. There is a guide at http://www.bfranker.badz28.com/fbody...be_install.doc

I drove down to Mufflex for a dual-cat 3" y-pipe. I couldn't find any reputable shops that could do it up here.

HP unknown since I did heads and cam at the same time.

my mechanic knows of a shop in agwam ma near six flags. i dont know the name of the place. i will try and find out for you. if you are going to be at the MOT show tomorrow my friend/mechanic will be there.

also there is a place in holyoke mass who is cheap. the farther you go from boston the cheaper it is. there is also a place in nh powerdercoating solutions i think. they are a littl emore expensive i think.

jayman350, if you do a search in the lt1 section there is a topic (Anyone got soundlicps of their True Dual exhaust setup?? ) it should be exactly what your looking for. Kmook has an audio clip as well as a picture posted there. by the way does anyone know a place around here that would do a setup like this?

jayman350 · 07-20-2002, 06:59 PM

thanks for the heads up worm but I've got a 3rd gen so lt1 tech won't do me much good
