True Duals
Im looking to put true duals on my 1989 Camaro RS. Is it possible? I have been told it is not because the driver side sits to low. Has anyone done true duals?

Re: True Duals
I have true duals on my '83 Z28. It's totally possibly and the only time I have clearance issues is with REALLY high speed bumps. I have true dual 2.5" pipes all the way from the longtube headers to the mufflers (which dump right before the rear axle.)
here are some pics

Re: True Duals
My pipes could be bent a little better to give even more room too.

Re: True Duals
It can be done but how hard or easy depends on your set up. I have a SBC with a TH 400 trans using an UMI torque arm crossmember. Not easy.
Manual transmissions and newer automatics using factory crossmembers. Easier.

Re: True Duals
With an auto, from everything I've read says its nigh impossible but doable with a manual. With an auto you need to route it so it follows the factory single tube routing.

Re: True Duals
I wouldn't say impossible, the pipes just can't be put in the same spot as with a manual. I have a TH350
