Building my LSx exhaust
LQ4 6.0 w/4L80 & 3.73 locker
Truck is 1985 C/10 SWB 1 3/4" stainless shorty for 2000 Silverado. Dual 3" into Flowmaster super 44 Single 3 1/2" out I still need to make the tailpipe, but it's hard to shape the big pipe over the rear on a lowered truck.

Re: Building my LSx exhaust
Just a tailpipe away from putting the body back on the frame.

Re: Building my LSx exhaust
Nice work! Looks really good. I think the exhaust was the 2nd worst part of doing my swap, for me. Next time, I'll be paying someone, so I can really appreciate the nice work you've put into yours!

Re: Building my LSx exhaust
Thanks guys. I really like these V-band clamps. They make nice exhaust joints.

Re: Building my LSx exhaust
Nice work. Yes those clamps are nice. I have them on mine as well.
I have to ask though, why didn't you go with duals on it?

Re: Building my LSx exhaust
I just wanted to try something different. I believe it should flow as good as a small 2.5" dual system?
