Anyone have a cheap/inexpensive dual exhaust? I know it can be done but in the parts stores I can't find a dual exhaust setup for our trucks. I'm basically looking for a dual outlet exhaust with a "performance" muffler. By performance I just mean something louder than stock to show off the v-8 sound. I hate the factory muffler that's on the truck it's too quiet. I've heard cadillac's with louder exhausts than my particular truck.

Walker makes a "sound/fx" muffler that from the name sounds like it's a nice tone above the factory replacement. I could deal without duals if I can find an inexpensive way to warm up the sound.

This is my work truck by the way so putting good money into it is not ideal. When I take her off the road in a year or so and can do a resto then i'll cross that bridge!!!

Thanks!

 

Archion found a nice setup for his, I don't remember who he said made it. He found it interesting because it looks almost exactly like the system I designed for my 1977 when I put a 390 camper special engine in it.

It runs both banks down the right side and twin tailpipes out the side close to the stock location. This avoids the mid frame (front) tank. It doesn't have the chrome "cannons" either straight out or the latest fad, at a 45.

The only problem you may have is emission laws. If New Jersey requires everything be there, you might run into inspection issues.

 

There are various suppliers that make a single inlet/dual outlet muffler...Flowmaster being one of them. They sound very nice as a matter of fact.

Gary I think runs one and it sounds nice, he had posted a video at one point. He stated it was too loud for him, but I think it sounds nice.

You're right, there is really no "kit" for these trucks. I ran true dual exhuast on my truck. I bought the mufflers and had a shop run the pipe for me. Cost me $250, including some really nice SS slant tips

Instead of duals, I went with single 3"......
