I know the obvious NRP and Borla options. I am looking to get a similiar sound at less cost. Don't really need stainless, so what options have you guys tried and heard. I know flowmaster is popular, but what model. Also which cats, I heard people use catco, which model on that. Also I need new exhaust manifolds on both sides, what besides stock has been tried, Basically need a whole new system. Thanks for input. |

I would just say wait before you get a local place to do the work. I have an 89 classic and I have already spent 700.00 trying to get the exhaust done by the local garages. Make sure the place has a good reputation. At this rate I will have spent same amount to get the exhaust fixed as some places might charge for a complete system. Just beware and I hope it goes well. |

two out of 3 bolts on each side are broken off. I had to drill out and add a bolt on one side. It's not very tight and has developed some leaks, I need some new cats, due to one rattling is bad, so I would like replace the system, how do you suppose i fix the problem, Can I weld it to the new Y pipe? I would rather not tackle removing the manifold bolts. Thanks for your help, I plan on going the flowmaster and catco route, Where do you think I could get cheaper O2 sensors. Also the part number on the catco is it 6905 or 6005? thanks Perrone |
