Nice write up Jim! I replaced my exhaust a while back too. I bought a dual kit from LMC, but gave up when I couldn't get the manifold collector bolts to budge. Trucked it down to a muffler shop and had them do it for me. He broke almost all of those bolts on the manifolds and spent quite a bit of time re-bending the supposedly pre-bent pipes. I am not happy overall, he did a poor job lining everything up and put hangers in poor places, but it sounds good and sure beats the rusted out single pipe! Happy trucking; I love your Corvette too by the way!
