Re: need help with exhaust

You could get your mufflers and have a muffler shop do your exhaust as well.

Re: need help with exhaust

odds are that a local exhaust shop could do a custom system for much cheaper than you could order one for.

Re: need help with exhaust

It has been a long time - in fact I already had to replace the mufflers once but the LMC kit bolted right up to my K10. Look in the LMC catalog or go right to Heartthrob Exhaust. LMC drop ships their "kit" from there. I believe it was less than $200 INCLUDING SHIPPING right to my door. Click your way to both places and see who is cheaper.

The nice thing about doing it yourself is that when it comes time to replace mufflers or a tailpipe or something you can just order the piece and replace it yourself.

Of course if you don't have a K10 you can't roll under there while all four corners are on the slab.

The only part missing when I put the dual exhaust kit on my truck was the muffler hanger for one side. My truck was a factory single exhaust truck so I had to go to NAPA and get a universal hanger for one side. The kit had some universal hangers but I didn't like them.
