RAVE REVIEW: Custom exhaust by trophy tire.

Just took my 78 scab in for custom duals, almost no other place wanted to touch the job. I got some insane quotes.....until trophy tire.


PURE ART is all I can say. Perfect bends, quality hangers, solid installation and it looks almost factory, which is what I'd requested to keep the smoggy smog police confused.


Sorry no pics, but trophy tire in east Stroudsburg PA is HIGHLY recommended for custom exhaust work.

Not sure what you mean by that, but bent beautiful flowing "S" bends to come off the manifolds, down along the X member, then back over to the other side in one solid length of pipe, with no tight bends, as to not create any restrictions in the pipe. Unbelievable the craftsmanship.

I wish we had a good exhaust shop up here that did not charge an arm and a leg.


If I have it done, it'll run me between $550-$650, and that is with me providing the mufflers and tips. (and that's not even mandrel bends)


I bought a box of mandrel bends and I might give it a shot building my own, but I need to get better at welding first...

You could always do those clamp sleeves, essentially making butt connections, without having to weld anything.

Also to the OP, share pics if you can!! Its always nice to see high quality workmanship on our trucks!!
