OK I got my c3 running good and all the electrical is operational. The exhaust is the stock exhaust but in bad shape. I have the 2" ram horns that I am not changing yet. But I was trying to decide between two exhaust setups true duals all the way back to 2 flowmasters or true dual into 2 glass pack and a pipe coming out the side of the car right before the rear wheels with angle cuts like a stock car. I want a nice rumble and I dont really like the dumps that a stock exhaust system has in the rear. Would the twin glasspacks and pipes out the side look and sound ok and if anyone has a pic of the same sort of thing I would love to see it. PS I love the way sidepipes sound but I have kids and a wife lots of leg burns would be bad so I have decided against them

Thanks Guys

If you are wanting the side exhaust sound without the leg burn, go with the chambered dual exahust from Mid America. I have had mine now for two years and still smile from ear to ear every time I stand on the gas.

There is not as lot of ground clearance in front of the rear tires because the frame is kind of low at that point. I think you would be dragging the syatem on every bump in the road.

What is the chamber type exhaust and is there any link to check it out

My nephew replaced the center cross member on his '80 with a used cross member from a '74. He got the cross member, transmission bracket and exhaust hanger from carols corvette dismantlers. Then he put in a 2-1/2" true stage 2 dual exhaust from Allen's. The cross member was a good fit (the holes in the frame bracket had to be slightly elongated). Allens also has Stage I and II chambered systems.

Oh my load I just picked up my car from the exhaust shop and I elected to have true dual 2 1/4" installed all the way back into two V force V chamber type mufflers. It sounds Bad AZZ just the sound I was looking for very happy. If you are near Woodstock Kens Stainless Exhaust did A fantastic job very pleased. It costed me $530 plus tax for true duals and both mufflers installed in Aluminized pipe.

Very Happy

Thanks for the help guys

I agree with Ron71 :yesnod: I have the chamberd from Midamerica and I love that sound especially with the cam that I have, It definetly has a head turning sound when you stand on it! :jester
