I am starting to receive my christmas gifts this year ( cash for vette stuff ) and am considering chambered exhaust from mid-america.
Does any one have experience with this sytem as far as how well does it fit and what are any negatives I should be aware of ? Thanks

mine fit pretty good. I have it coming out back straight without turndowns. Had to devise my own hangers
and also had an H pipe installed. Took out some of the high notes and left a nice low rumble.
It's loud at WOT but thats why I own a vette. Steve

I got mine from MAD too. $299 I think. There's nothing like the chambered sound. They might seem a bit harsh at first, but I think after a year now they're starting to mellow a bit at idle.

I had to expand two of the pipe ends to fit perfectly. You can buy or rent a tail pipe expander....it really wasn't a big deal. I also needed to cut about 1/4 into the exhaust/manifold clamp. I used a new heat riser spacer and I just couldn't get all three bolts to line up perfect. Again this was pretty much a straight forward bolt-on.

You can check-out the chambered exhaust page at my site below for more info. :yesnod:

is the chambered exhuast 2.5 inches all the way through or just where it bolts to the manifold?

the 2 1/2" chambered kit from mid America is 2 1/2" up to the exhaust tips. The stock tips are 2" so the kit reduces down to 2" at the tips.

Some say they are too restrictive......but you sure cant beat the sound!!!!! Deep throaty sound at idle, decent for cruizin' (you can hear the radio), but scares the H out of little kids and ol' ladies when ya stand on it :eek: :eek: . I just LUV mine :lol: :lol: :lol: :seeya

Thanks for your responses to my question.
It sounds like this is what I`m looking for.
Something to wake up the people next door when I leave for work at 5:00 AM.
