Cool, I made my own side exhaust after cutout tips years ago to have clearance. These would have worked as is.
So, Dr Gas is out of business? Was kinda looking into some of their stuff wanting to get more of a 180 degree header sound without the bundle of snakes mess.
Wonder what sort of tone difference the wide oval 3 section outlets make over a round pipe.

Just got it delivered. Very well made piece and compact.
Didnt get to weigh it but less than 10 lbs.
I will try it in as catback first then with cutout if is too loud.

i heard this on a lt1 396 stroker, hoping it sounds well on aluminium block stock ls1.

Probably will get to it in a month but will post videos.
