True duals possible on Z28?

Doesn't seem like there is all that much room underneath there. Just curious if anyone here has done if before and has pics? Thanks.

BTW Im a borla fan - the car has flowmaster on it right now.

If your talking "TRUE DUALS" that is straight 3" piipes from the headers to the rear end then it is no.
But you could have duals following the path the exhaust takes now.
I did it to mine (only 2 1/4" pipes each) and I have some old pics on my site. I just got it redone but no pics on that yet.
a few other guys have done it but I don't have their sites .

Okay it is very possible to set up true duals the car i just bought had it set up on it actually i need to get some pics of a camaro with dual cats that doesnt have true duals because i want to see what the stock setup looks like

The other thing you can do is get straight pipes....thats a little different because then the pipes run straight down your car and out the back....not the easiest thing in the world to do if you really want i know a web site where the guys make their own exhausts and have a 3" straight pipe setup for third gens but itll run you about a grand....little pricy for my likeing.

Ill have pics in a day or two of my car with true duals its got 2 cats , 2 chambered mufflers and runs seperate the whole way. Ill send you some snap shots when i have em.

Yes it is possible I have seen it done, using 2 cats. But it is kinda messy.

I would stick with a single
