Exhaust for V8
I was wondering how much modifying I could do to my exhaust system before I stir up a hornets nest with the 02 sensors.I haven't look yet but they say the Excursion has 4 cat convertors,I find that hard to believe.Thanx for any help John

It has one.
You can replace basically ALL of the exhaust (manifolds, cat, muffler & pipes) without messing up the O2 sensors so long as you keep it intact & functioning...
What are you looking to do?

Depending on your budget; headers and a new cat-back can doo wonders for performance and sound.
A small budget would be to just replace the stock muffler and maybe get rid of that second "muffler" on the end. What's that called, "a resonator" or something?
A new muffler with maybe the tailpipe from V10 would work well on a budget.
