Guessing here that you mean a "Y" shaped head pipe to catalytic converter assembly? If memory serves that was all one chunk from the factory and cost $$$. it can be replicated and I think a repro version actually may be offered somewhere. As you say, and I do agree, $$$ and legal

Not specifically, I was talking moreso from.tje car back, one in to two pipes, but also yes the head pipes from the manifold as well.

Which is lauder?
Sound level? Straight manifold..no exhaust at all 😛
Take it from me, you'll like not being pulled over for having a loud car. Right now you could just swap the muffler for a flowmaster welded/chambered muffler and see how it sounds. Small steps.

Lol I ran open hooker super comps with 18” extensions on my 383 ,for a few months
I had to wear ear plugs if I drove it on the highway
It was pretty awesome to hit the gas from idle and let that lil small block explode the peace and tranquility of the neighbourhood 🤯
I replaced the extensions with a stainless 2 1/2” magnaflow kit with x pipe
Very high quality system ,excellent sound
It actually sounded like a street bike ,kinda raspy with instant throttle response
It also sold me on the theory that x pipes increase throttle response and power in performance engines
Not sure about stock engines?
A little off topic , just trying to share from my limited experience
I’m sure a guy could add cats to the system if big brother is watching
 
Hello guys. Hope all of you doing great!!!. Still don't have the money for the car but I found on internet a used grill for motivation. So I have allready the grill , only the car is missing from behind the grill

That car is very expensive honestly
 
Or I'm just too broke 😅
Mine was a steal at $3k. There's still a lot of g-bodies in USA. Trick is finding one that hasn't been mangled by one of these drag racers. If I was in Europe, I guess I'd be driving 30 year old Mercedes, BMW, or whatever French car is rear wheel drive and not a total dog.
