Post pics of X-pipe exhaust setups...
I know that there have been many discussions and pics of X-pipes, but searching the archives have not turned up what i am looking for.
I am finally getting to add new exhaust to my truck and i was wanting to see how the rest of you have routed your exhaust with an X-pipe incorporated. |

Re: Post pics of X-pipe exhaust setups...
Here is the system in my 69 K20 with a swapped in bbc.
The system is 3" pipe from the headers to the x-pipe, then 2 1/2" to Dynomax UltraFlo's and continues as 2 1/2" pipe dumping at the rear of the flatbed angled down slightly. Here are some pics of the system. This is the X-pipe that I had built by someone I found on E-bay. Rather than use the collector piece that came with the headers, American Muffler made their own piece The passenger side collector was fairly close to the transfer case. Here is a pic of the pipe coming over the transfer case Here is the X-pipe installed directly behind the transfer case And here is an example of the welds at the X-pipe

Here are the Dynomax UltraFlo mufflers
Pretty straight shot to the rear of the truck The pipes dumb right before the hitch and are well protected

What is that about a three inch body lift? that makes running exhaust a breeze!

Nice set up, I'm a fan of the cross over system myself.

Re: Post pics of X-pipe exhaust setups...
yes the lift helps out.
that is pretty much how i want to run mine, but its going to be alittle trickier. i plan on cutting through my trailing arm cross member and then reinforcing with 4" pipe. I want them to end like yours, minus the turn down. I haven't picked a muffler yet, but i want to tone it down some. i am running cherry bombs now...with a hole in the H-pipe. |
