I don't know what he paid, but it does work and he kept the catalytic convertor so there is no legal issues. Unless you have the bending equipment and tools, your best bet is to have it done. | | | Re: exhaust question #58264 January 02nd 2001 2:38 pm | Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 252 enthusiast | enthusiast Joined: Dec 2000 Posts: 252 | Although I see nothing wrong with taking your rig into a shop like Midas, if it's immoble, check this out: There was an article awhile back in one of the classic truck mags on a build up that RB's Obsolete Automotive did. They had a kit where they had a flexible tube, and shaped it where they wanted it, filled it with foam to make it rigid, and sent it to Stainless Works to have them turn it into an exhaust for them... it's called Fit Kit Plus.
