Factory side exhaust duals
Many years ago I had an 86 GMC C10. I remember replacing the muffler and tailpipes with some from Autozone. The muffler was a single out dual out and both pipes exited on the drivers side just behind the rear tire. I am curious if this was a factory set-up or aftermarket?

That was factory, single exhaust with dual tailpipes exiting behind the passenger rear tire.

Re: Factory side exhaust duals
My dad had an 85 with the same setup. It had a single 2-1/2 before and dual 2-1/4 out the back on the same side

Re: Factory side exhaust duals
The passenger side seems like a better idea...kinda insulated the driver from the sound somewhat. I kinda like the look, so I might go that route when I redo my exhaust.

Re: Factory side exhaust duals
I think my 83 C20 is mostly stock on the 454 exhaust, but the tailpipes exit behind the rear wheels on both sides. I think that is a more efficient exhaust idea, but I do not have a catalytic converter to deal with (3/4 tons trucks got cat exemption for a while in the early 80s. I think the factory configuration is tailpipes over the rear axle and dumping out the back in the 83 model.
