My new exhaust system
Heres some pictures of my new exhaust system it truned out good just needs to be redone alittle around the cut out on the passenger side so I can add a small turn down. I will take some side pictures when I get a chance for some reason I forgot. I wanted something different then what everyone else is doing, I allready know half of you like to criticize & will have not so nice cool things to say about it so here ya go have at it....Try to be nice. I have abig block & you don't....

Re: My new exhaust system
Looks good... I like the sound of a single exhaust better then duals.
You might have a problem scraping though (especially if truck is lowered). I had long tube headers but changed them and ran thru the frame crossmembers.. Can't imagine how scary loud it is with the cut-outs open. Now you just got to work on flaps so you can open them from inside the cab ![]() |

Re: My new exhaust system
LOL. Good eye. More unit clearance is always a plus when it comes to seat time.

Re: My new exhaust system
I'm probably going with a single on a new motor. More scavenging, smoother sound, less weight. I also won't have to spend a fortune on two e-cutouts. And regardless the chevy firing order is boring. People think it's terrible to do a single, but they came with them.

Re: My new exhaust system
I had a set of cutouts along time ago that were controlled by cables, that set is so much nicer. The system looks good. What diameter did you use? What type of muffling unit did you use?

Re: My new exhaust system
I just reread my post, I meant the set you have are nicer than the junky one I used, they clattered and clanged all the time, sounded like a farm tractor with a flapper on the exhaust.

Re: My new exhaust system
Yes they do sit low I wish they were a few inches shorter. Plus I think I need shocks up front its too bouncy when I am going down the freway.I hate hitting those low dips.
