anyone running summit brand dual exhaust?

[Anonymous]

Im not planning on any racing. I need a good dual exhaust on the cheap. I could have a local exhaust shop put one on but then I would have to pay to have it towed. Anyways here it is.

Well I actually did try one of these systems on a 1967camaro here. I was pretty good. It fit well and really had NO issues with anything. So hope that helps a bit. Jim

i bought that set up mine fit ok except the pipes out the muffler over the rearend i couldnt get it to fit rite its 2 piece section after the rearend pipes the tail pipes slide on and exit the rear bumper i think its good for the money just might need to be tweeked for an exact fit i went a step further and bought summit welded mufflers might be worth the xtra $$ last longer worst case the header pipes and mufflers will fit fine then could drive to a muffler shop to tweek the tail pipe set up if your car is driveable but who knows maybe your kit will fit better than the one i got when i ordered mine i asked if they could swap the crimped mufflers for the welded ones they wouldnt so if you want different mufflers i would buy the pipe kit if offered then buy mufflers seperate G/L

Was the kit you bought the 2.5" like the one in the link I provided or the bigger 3" kit? I just ask because I heard the 3" kit does not fit over the rear axle correctly. Thanks

yes mine is the 2.5"------- dont know if this is an option for you my car now has 3" and exits just before the rear tires

I am using the Jegs 2.5" dual setup. Pretty good for the price.

Downsides, at least on my setup, are-
the left pipe from the header to the muffler could be bent a little better. Right side fits beautiful, the left fits OK but just seems a little sloppy compared to the right.

The pipes from the muffler to the bumper are in 2 pieces. One bends up over the axle the other is just a 18" straight extension. Works perfect but looks a little hillbilly since you can see the connection from the side of the car. I think they did it for shipping purposes.

At the end of the day- I am satisfied but would not sing praises about it.

Cool thanks for the info, I ordered summits kit but haven't put it on yet. Im going to be coating the under side of the car with chassis saver soon so I need as much stuff out of the way as possible.
