Finally Getting My Exhaust On My 71
1 Attachment(s)
After working on my truck for a year finally getting it to the exhaust shop this morning. Going with 2.5" aluminumized pipe with 40 series Flowmasters turned down behind the rear tires like a chevelle or camaro. The guy doing it is about the best in my area. He does all my work. Can't wait to pick it up the afternoon.

Good looking truck.
I just built my exhaust, using thrush welded mufflers(2 chamber flowmaster copies) I tan tail pipesout the rear. Turndowns are very loud, but if that's what your wanting, I'm sure you'll like it. Posted via Mobile Device |

A tail pipe out the back directs the sound away from the vehicle and its occupents making it not as loud. The longer the pipe the quieter the exhaust will be. |
Re: Finally Getting My Exhaust On My 71
I had mine turned down at the bumper.

Out the rear should not be as bad. Mine are turning down behind the tires as well, I am using 2012 Camaro tips. |
Re: Finally Getting My Exhaust On My 71
Thanks for the compliments! I will try and post a video but I have never done it before but I will try. The wheels are factory 6" on front and 8" steelies from Summit on the rear painted black with mid 70s-80s full size car dog dish caps. Tires are 215/70/15 on front and 255/70/15 on rear (They ain't cheap!). Suspension is 2 1/2 dropped spindles with 2" dropped springs on front and rear is 4" dropped leafs and a 2" lowering shackles on the rear. No C-notch but I'm abut 2" from hitting the rear end on the frame. The truck has a raked look when it is setting on level ground but I like it. Next is a front end alignment.

Are you going with an X or H pipe or straight Duals? And, are you running headers?
Lets hear them pipes! |

The hub caps came from ebay. It is dual exhaust with no crossover pipe. Here is a couple pics of how I had the tailpipes ran and dumped and a pic of my personalized tag. I have a video I will try to post of how it sounds. Its from my phone so quality isn't the best.

Re: Finally Getting My Exhaust On My 71
I know this is an old post but this is exactly how I want to run my exhaust. Yours looks great by the way. I looked under my truck and it looks pretty tight where the turn down will be. Would you happen to get a couple of pics for me underneath the truck and where the mufflers are located and the exhaust and how it is run under the truck? I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
