4 inches
Does anyone have 4 inch exhaust over the axle? I will...but would appreciate any pictures or horror stories. My Friend does trick exhaust, chassis,,,,well he pretty much does anything custom on cars. He says this should be possible. I 'm running Hooker Super Comp headers to dual 3 inch, then y-pipe into 4 inch over the axle into a Flowmaster 4inch Delta flow Race muffler and out to one 4inch tail pipe.....We 'll See?!?!?

Just wondering why not just run one single pipe all the way back. I know the benefits of dual exhaust, but you're exhaust is only as strong as the weakest point.
Just wondering if it really makes sense to run duals into a single exhaust?

Mark, it doesnt sound to me like he is really making what would be considered a dual system, he just used the term for before the merging of the y pipe. It sounds about like the mufflex setup, just custom made instead.

DUALS?
I have full length headers so I have to start with 2 pipes. When you get to the axle there isn't any room to bring them over which is why i'm jumping to a 4 inch pipe. A single 4 inch pipe has NEARLY the same volume as dual 3 inch and on these cars where exhaust was an afterthought its the best way I have come up with to get the exhaust out the back.
