New Exhaust on my Shortie - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I had a new 2.5 exh sys installed at a buddys shop. He bent all the pipes, installed flows and convertors. Sounds and runs great, might have even picked up some mpgs! The last pic is the 3.5 in tailpipes on my 69 Z/28

Vids ? I like how the mufflers are so far back, that makes it louder outside

Are converters mandatory in your state? I guess OK is one of the few states left that doesnt require state inspection.

That is exactly how I want my truck. Its stock right now with 32" tires on it. I am really wanting to lift it 4"-6". What lift did you go with?

I will make a video today and take a couple of pics of under neath. A good buddy of mine Dave Darden build the sys. The truck runs and sounds great! I swear it gets better mpg's. It inspired me so much that yesterday I installed both power window motors, took the dash apart and repalced all the burned out dash lite bulbs, replaced the dash bezel with a nos one. With the pics I will list the lift also.
