ok....here are some pics for those who had asked me for them.

the piping is 3" mandrel, and the mufflers are 18" sweet thunder chambered mufflers.
they are way too short for this setup. the car is too loud and lost a lot of low end torque from too much flow i guess.

it looks like there is enough room behind my xpipe to cut off the rest, and just weld in the 30" sweet thunders. that should quiet things down a to a more daily driver friendly level.

total cost was $150 + the price of the mufflers.

later i will weld some fake exhaust tips in the rear of the car, because transam's look weird without tips.

anyway, here are the pics

bottom view notice, because i put the pipes both on the passenger side, they wont intefere an aftermarket torque arm, and get great ground clearance.

side view ....i put in a blue line extending from my passenger side header (its lower than the driver side) to show that the exhaust doesnt go much lower than the header collector, hardly an inch at most

showing where i grinded the tranny crossmember to gain clearance with 3" pipe

another from a diff angle

 

Aww, don't do that man! I understand what you mean about the car looking weird and all, but isn't that kind of a ricer-ish thing to do?

 

Looks good.Are you going to put turn downs on it?Only thing is I think my clearance is better than that.

 

the pic is at an angle, but the clearance is pretty good considering what ive got.

if we took more time and bends, there is a lot of room in the driveshaft tunnel, we can tuck it up there higher, but didnt bother with the hassle.

well, its not ricerish because the car has dual tips to begin with, so im really just making the car look stock again. they just wont actually be connected to the exhaust. ill close the other end of the tips, so you cant see through them, the car will look basically stock from the rear, but sound wicked.

it looks so ghetto with the rear having those two big empty areas where the tips are supposed to be.

 

I see I see. You also want it for the stealth factor. I bet you'll get some crazy looks from people wondering why a car with stock exhaust sounds so nasty!

 

well........stealth when its parked!

hehe......just wait.........in two weeks im dropping in the GM847 cam.......then harley riders will think im obnoxious!

 

where did you get the mandrel bent pipes... or did you make them.... and what kind of x pipe is that... where did you get "sweet thunders".......

 

http://www.sweet-thunder.com for the mufflers........use stainless steel........im gonna try and switch to the 30" when i have time/money............i bought the 18" which are too loud for me. anyone want barely used mufflers? hehe

the rest of the stuff was provide at the custom exhaust shop, i wish i could have used 2.5" mandrel, but all he had was 3". its really too big for this size engine, but oh well, the interior diameter of the mufflers is 2.5"
