V8 exhaust on V6...will it fit right? GMMG?

Pretty much said it all in the title.... Does the LS1 Exhaust-GMMG work on a 98 V6 bird? or is it too much work to get it to fit properly?

I think you are better off sticking to V6 specific exhaust systems. I know Dynomax has one. A buddy of mine decided to have someone install a Flowmaster muffler for a V8 and his power went down the tube. I guess it didn't have enough backpressure or something. On my buddies, I am not sure what else they did to his but I made him go back to the crappy shop to ge this OEM stuff back. That thing did not look right , then again it was a bad shop

He then ordered a Dynomax exhaust system for his v6 1999 camaro and it performed way better. Not to mentioned it sounded and looked way nicer.

Flowmaster also has some v6 exhaust systems I think.

On my 3.4ltr I had LS1 SS Cat back exhaust and its nice! I bought it this way from another member on this forum, she also installed the SS Black leather seats and complete interior. The exhaust had a real nice throaty sound, well as much as you can get with a lil 3.4ltr

It should work just fine considering people slap on Z28 and SS takeoff systems all the time.

But I'm not so sure I'd want to know what a 3800 sounded like through a GMMG.
