Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Haven't heard of anyone getting it installed on a running car yet. There are some clips on youtube of the fourthgen kit. Should be fairly close if you are running an LS.

Thanks, I just listened to some clips. Seems to be quieter than a Mufflex.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
I bought this system with the headers and everything, but I decided to sell my car before installing if anyone is interested, I still have it all new in the box unopened.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
What's the general consensus on the exhaust system? Worth the coin? Any exhaust clips?

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
So I read through all of this thread and the one on ls1tech so im not sure if I missed it or not. But will the swap headers work with the 1 inch set back adapter plates and factory k-member? Trans-Dapt Performance Engine Swap Motor Mounts 4595 is what I used but with the 92 style motor mounts, not the ones shown in the link.

Damn, that's gorgeous... and the exhaust system is too! lol. I just sat here staring at your whole setup for a solid 10 minutes.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Can someone measure and post up here the driveshaft u-joint angles at ride height after installing these motor mounts and T-56 cross member? Better yet, engine, driveshaft, and pinion angles.
For ride height , a measurement from the top of the axle tube to the frame would be good..to compare apples to apples.
Thanks in advance.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Well...they fit. Wasn't the easiest header install ive done, but the fit like a glove once in there. Other than having to undo the passenger side motor mount like the directions say. The only real issue i ran into was putting my starter in, didnt want to clear the headers and the stock fbody oil pan oil level sensor, but no biggy i got it to work. Ill post up some sound clips soon, ive got to do some tuning work for the heads and cam. But definitely a solid peice.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Daughter throwing in some commentary lol. This is with the Kooks headers, but the hooker duals. My phone seems to even out the sound so it doesn't peak, it is actually pretty loud, I'm also cammed and PP heads and a few other things.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
toddoky, do you know what heads the headers are compatible with? Do they work with aftermarket heads that have plugs in different locations, or are they gm castings only?
Thanks,
Jay
Thanks,
Jay
#226
Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
I can't say what specific aftermarket heads they will work with, but they provide more spark plug clearance than any other headers I'm aware of...look closely at their bend geometry around the plugs and you can see that I invested a lot of effort to maximize clearance around every plug/boot.

Badnblk thanks for the info! I'm gearing up for my ls1 & t56 upgrade. Can't wait to get started. Love your set up for everything. Love the hooker exhaust!! I want the long tube but I may have to go with shorties to try and fit some small cats in next to the transmission. I would rather not!!

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
This is with the Kooks to the Hooker. Pipe I made is basically just a small tight bend and maybe 4" of straight pipe to connect the two. Doubt it is enough room for a cat. If you want the long tubes you might as well get them since either way you will probably have to cut the exhaust up a bit to fit cats.

I think bullet cats could be worked in next to the trans?

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Thanks guys for the info! I have decided to get the long tubes along with the rest of the system, mounts, cross member, exhaust. I like that there is a system that all works together. Do you know if Holly has had in the past a Labor day sale? I would love to buy the whole kit at one shot and if I could save a little that would be awesome!!

Toddoky thank you for all your post hear and on the ls1 tech forums! It is great to have an insider that can help us with our builds and teas us with a really nice system!!

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Whats the sound like when you're decelerating from higher rpm while in gear and not on the brakes? My Dynomax LM1 copy has a noise I hate in that situation around 2500rpm... And I want to build my own exhaust system similar to this.

Hey Toddoky, is there an individual part number for the mufflers that come with the true dual exhaust kit?

Do you think the 70501426RHKR will be avail soon? I see it's backordered.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
toddoky - Any idea what the flow rate is thru the true dual Black Heart system is?
I want to install this on my 390 SBC with an F1 Procharger pushing about 14psi. This should net me near the 700 HP mark and I want to make sure this has enough flow to support that. I think it does, but thought it would be nice to see if you guys over at Hooker had some hard numbers on flow to to along with the system.
Thanks for any help that you can provide.

He answered this there. This won't support your setup.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Thanks for that Lurbie. I hadn't come across that thread before now.
Although he does offer an answer by way of comparison, it would be interesting to know how exactly he arrived at his conclusion. Being in his position he undoubtedly has access to all sorts of flow data regarding the CFM of his engineering efforts. And I would like to see them.
Short of that, it's a matter of taking the man at his word (and an educated, engineering word I should add) and go from there.
Fortunately for me, I don't have the same need as Dennis does. Or unfortunately depending on how you compare the two situations. I'm at best, about 450 HP.
Thanks again Lurbie.

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
so quick question regarding UMI tubular k-member... has anyone used the holley ls swap parts yet with this k-member?
my son and i are going to swap out his sbc for an ls3 in his formula that already has the umi k-member installed.
the holley motor mounts utilize mounting holes on the factory k member that normally where for the v6 in some spots vs the forward v8 holes... on the umi k-member the pad only was made for the v8 holes... i can fab something up, just wondering if anyone else has done this yet
i am thinking about taking the umi lsx mount adapter and basically grinding off their existing mount arms and fabricating arms to weld in the right spot...

Re: Finally: Holley to produce LT and True Dual System
Spohn kmember and motor mounts, with hooker crossmember. Redesigning my exhaust myself in my garage, not too bad imho.
Way better than anything else offered on the market right now. Worth the $300
