**Yukon Jack** · 06-02-2005, 05:59 PM

Just for an idea from my system on my K20 I ran 3" pipes from the collectors to an x-pipe that I supplied, then 2 1/2" to the mufflers that I supplied then 2 1/2" to the back of the truck and it was $300. More than I had anticipated but they did a great job.

LUV2XCLR8 · 06-02-2005, 06:33 PM

Mine was $500, but if I had used regular mufflers (Not Stainless) it would
have been in the $400 range, BTW, the same shop sells flows, and it was
the same price either way, not to metion most shops use strap hangers,
these heavy duty ones are around $8 a piece his cost (We used 4 of em)
that is out the door cost (cash) w/ tax it would've been closer to $550

shortbed70 · 06-02-2005, 08:48 PM

I can't get it to work. I was going to post a sound bite awhile back for someone wanting to hear a gear drive but couldn't figure out how.

71RestoRod · 06-02-2005, 11:04 PM

That'll sure wake up the neighorhood! Sounds great!

Alexis · 06-03-2005, 01:08 AM

Now thats how it's suppose to sound!

71jimmy · 06-03-2005, 01:31 AM

sure sounds purdy, thanks for the post.

Yea, I know, took her to the dragstrip last night, NO I did not run it

,
took me 3 hours this morning to clean all the drool off her, even the Ford
mustang guys were impressed with it, my bud, who did the exhaust, was
busy pointing out the exhaust to everyone, I think we used 5 gallons of
gas last night and it never moved, everyone wanted to here her run.
