Re: Creamsicle: My 70 K10 SWB is about to get sweeter

I got my truck back from my exhaust fabrication one week ago, on July-27. The system turned out pretty nice. He used polished stainless steel and fabricated his own hangers. I already had some new Corsa DB mufflers, which I got from a friend of mine, that were used on the system. They are a bit louder then I hoped, but I can always change them out since my exhaust guy welded V-band clamps to allow for removal. I didn't have him go to the extent of grinding and polishing the welds. I may do this some day, you never know.

Here is overall picture of the exhaust system

Welded V-band clamps on inlet and outlet muffler connections. There was no room to put an X or H-pipe, so that was not done. He said it would not be beneficial anyways too far back in the system.

Another picture by the front driveshaft. You can't really see the passenger side because of the drive shaft. He did a good job getting around the transfer case.
