I am looking into a dual exhaust set up using an x pipe. I was looking at the Hooker system but I want the exhaust to come straight out the back like stock. what company did evey one use or did you buy in pieces?
 
The Jegs stainless system everyone bought a while back comes out the back like the factory Monte, I was going to modify mine to come out like the BOP cars since I don't like rear exit exhaust on any Gbody.

Do you have a part number for the Jegs? I see that Pypes has one that looks like it will fit the bill. Has anyone used them?

I paid $148 to my door when it was on sale.

Don't use the Pypes 2.5" kit with bumper exits, the passenger side tailpipe is bent wrong. I found this out the hard way with four different tailpipes & they know but not worried about it. But their 3" kit is OK from what I have heard. I ended up with the Jegs true dual kit using the Pypes mufflers.

Thank you for the information. I think I will need 3" for my application. Going to swap in a LS3.

If you are going with a mostly Holley parts maybe their kit could be a good pick but price is the kick to the nuts. I was thiking about it for my SBC but the Jegs was priced too good to pass up.
 
I do like the Holley set up but it looks like I would have to buy the kit then throw down another $200 on top of that for the exhaust tips I want.
