Try HeartThrob exhaust and then see which of their distributors has the best price.

Keep in mind that the pipes cannot possibly be made to connect to any and all header types, so plan on doing some pipe fabricating. Try not to use "crush" bends anywhere because they can reduce flow by at least 25%.

I modified these Hedman "S" bends to connect my Patriot headers to the exhaust pipes on my 82 C10.

I have 3" dual stainless works kit and it sounds good. I had to modify my trans crossmember to fit it tho. If my headers hung another inch or so lower they would've fit good tho.

I have a 1987 V10 (4wd/700r4/small block) with Hooker 2827-1 super comp headers.

I searched high and low, stainless works is the only company that makes a 2-1/2" and 3" kit that fits 4x4's. all the others are 2-1/4".

I shelled out the $995 for the stainless works pipe / mufflers / install kit (parts CT67725TS & CT7287MINSTAL) and i had to chop and weld on it -- alot. I even called and confirmed fitment with them before placing my order. I would NOT recommend the stainless works exhaust system for a square body 4x4, unless you are interested in cutting and welding on it. It would have been easier to just order the straight pipes

To be fair, the two pieces after the mufflers were bent correctly and fit well.

I make my own. The last 2 systems I used 2.75" EMT. On my truck I used 3" I just pie cut to make bends and weld it back together.

I'm to stubborn to let others do stuff I can do and not having to pay some one is a plus too. Subborn And a cheap ass that's me lol. If it can be welded I'm game for it.

I would to but, he is my brother in-law, he had the TIG and wanted to use it, the car was on his lift, and he is a much better welder than I am.

This says it's for a C10/20. May not fit on a 4x4. You can purchase the tail pipes as a separate kit though.

well ****, thought that was it. cant find it now
