Pypes exhaust system - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

MylilBowTie · 01-12-2005, 05:32 PM

I have an exhaust video if anyone wants to see it. I would like to try and get it hosted somewhere but its a 6.21mb file. I have it converted to wma file format and that got the file a little smaller from the 8mb file it was. I could cut off the last couple of seconds. But I haven't found a program to do that yet. I thought XP was supposed to have a program to do that type of stuff but I haven't found it or anything what will in XP yet.

I cant in my case say anything to good about the fitment. I also wasn't able to use the crossover pipe. That may be my fault thinking I could just put it together and weld it up and everything turn out excellent. I didn't have any such luck. I took my time thought about the things I did and cut some parts to fit. I do like the fact that the pipes are mandrel bent and the mufflers though. I would be a lot happier if everything went like I thought it would have and use the whole system. The system isn't made for are year trucks, its a universal system. That's were some fabrication comes in play more so than it would with an exhaust system that was fitted vs universal.

So anyone want to hear it?

Sent it to me and I will host it for you.

The system actually is made for 73-87 trucks. They designed it on a 73-87 LWB truck. It would have to be cut for a SWB. Not sure why you weren't able to get it to work for you. Swervin had his pretty easy.

Capt:

Does the Pypes system with crossover fit the 4x4's??

The issue with the 4x4's is you would have to build a drop pipe so one leg would go under the transfercase.
