Needs Complete Exhaust System - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

stevewhitmore · 03-16-2009, 04:29 PM

Hey Guys,
I just purchased a 69 short bed with a 307 (or 350) with auto trans and it needs a complete exhaust system from the current rusty headers on back.
I like flowmaster type and sound but I do not find any complete kits like they did for my 67 Camaro.
Any suggestions on just the headers will help, but I need the works. I hear certain brands are bad when it comes to plug access. I see LMC has a complete exhaust kit for standard exhaust manifolds, but not if you are running headers.
Any idea's will be appreciated and considered

Thanks,
Steve

Hey, welcome from Eleanor, I'm halfway between Charleston and Huntington. On the exhaust I used a pr glasspacks from a swapmeet, had 45's bent and straight pipe and made my own got $75-80 in 'em

Pypes offers a 2.5" system, with an X-pipe for $275 without the mufflers. Its a stainless steel mandrel bent system, part number is SGT79, and is for use with headers. I'm ordering one for my '69 C10 shortstep (454/TH400). The Pypes website (www.pypesexhaust.com) was a lot of help, as was their techline.

I will sell you my brand new 2.5 inch header back x pipe system with Cherry Bomb extremes and slash cut tips for a good price

But I think Magnaflow makes a system

Thanks to all for all the info, it looks like the "Pypes" might be the way to go
