It's been a while but I want to do something different this summer with exhaust. I used Tire Mart in Frederick, MD last time. I need to check who is doing exhaust now. There are exhaust shops all over. There is a guy in the area that does custom mandrel bent systems, but very very expensive. I have a Bartens bumper, a swing down spare carrier, and hitch bracing. I had them dump it out the rear quarter under the bumper

Come on Tim, stainless is what I want, I'm not asking how to build an exhaust system I'm asking you to give up the names of the shops you mentioned in this post. Tire Mart, that's your custom shop? Who is the very, very expensive shop? Mandrel bent will flow better and it isn't hype. Would you put 1" headers on a big block or 1 5/8"? Why not be helpful?
