Exhaust was installed yesterday. They did a great job and fit everything in very neatly. It's a combination of mostly 2.5" but some 2 1/4" pipe. The mufflers are identical to Flowmaster 40's made in an old Flowmaster factory in Mexico. It seems that when Flowmaster moved their manufacturing to China, a Mexican company bought the factory and makes these. They call them Street Flows. Everything is stainless steel. Pipes are compression bent. Splitter tips are PYPES stainless steel.

It's a bit louder than I expected but it sounds wonderful! Has a noticable lope to it. I wish I could attach a video. Also, I wish I could show a good picture of the nice job they did on the system. I took pictures while it was up on the lift at the shop but unfortunately not enough flash. So they didn't turn out well.

In driving the car more, I see (smell) that it runs really rich and that has to change. It has a Quadrajet and according to the numbers was originally on a 1978 Chevy with manual transmission. It's 800 cfm (200/600). So probably the solution will involve rebuilding it and then figuring out how to set it up.
