Also a good dual setup will always sound better than a y pipe hands down, I have St on mine and they sound killer

arioch

i dunno, when i got under there and saw how close they were to the actual pipe, i didn't feel safe leaving them there......maybe with some heat shielding or something

Ofcourse im running ARH headers so mine might fit slightly different than if i was using Texas Speed headers

If you have atleast 1/4" of clearance from the Exhaust to the metal Fuel Line you will be fine.

^how far should a exhaust be from the fuel tank. with the kooks true duals you have to remove the heatshield and use heat tape. so i just bent the heat shield but it is hitting the exhaust. so how far is safe for a exhaust to the fuel tank? this is on the over the axle part.

I'd run a 1/8 from the Heat Shielding if possible..I have yet to read about a car where the Exhaust melted the Gas Tank.

If it does the fire will be in the back and the plastic tanks wont explode so you'll have time to bail..

lol your a half glass full type of guy. i will try to work on it when the exhaust hanger comes. ill try to get some sheet metal and heat it and bend it to where it needs to be. i just dont know if i will have to tac weld it to the body or what. the screw that holds it up doesnt keep it up very well lol.

Lol..got to stay positive man..look at the good in things.

it should be at least a 1.5 inches from the gas tank. so that should be good right?

That's plenty good.

Youve just got to find the right shop. Out here in orange/la county the one guy to go to is off a side street in a plaza with 7 other shops. He did installs for a former shop out here that worked for GM High Tech. I had 400 in labor/parts excluding my mufflers and cats for 3 inch mandrel bent under the axle. He can also do 3 inch over the axle with no panhard relocation.

Drew-Kooks

Kooks now offers a bolt in True Dual Exhaust for the F-body cars, inoff road or catted versions to hook up to our headers.
this is the link to the install done by me for GM High Tech in our shop
