I notived this dent in my exhaust pipe in this picture.

Dent is in the pipe above the highlighted part.



The part that I am talking about is squared in the black line.

I know that the (I don't know what it is called, but since it is above the pan hard bar, I am going to call it the upper pan hard bar) upper pan hard bar cause it. Is there any thing that is produced that is a replacement to this? Thanks in advance.

 

That is a brace for the panhardbar. The dent was put in the exhaust by the manufacturer to clear the brace; the brace did not cause the dent.

 

Oh, ok. Thanks. Do the aftermarket cat-backs have those?
And, what about the pan hard brace? Anyone make anything aftermarket for that? I don't like the red PHB with a rusty brace....lol.

 

BMR i know makes a aftermarket one, its made so you can run dual exhuast over the axle.

Check Thunder Racing, a board sponsor. I believe they carry what you're looking for.

I want the Lingenfelter twin turbo 402 LS2.....
But, I'll probably get a LS1.
I found the site. I think that I am going to get one. In red, like everything else. Thanks.

 

Score!!! Dad is getting me the Hooker Super Comp shorties for Christmas and paying for the coating. I just gotta get the pan hard brace and pay for the exhaust. I might even get the whole exhaust coated. Ceramic coating on the shorties are $95 at a very local shop and $10 a foot for the pipe. That would be sweet. I think I am gonna run duals, so the money I save on the y-pipe will go for piping and coating. But I think that it will be worth it. What do you guys think?

 

that would be super sweet keep us updated. Although i'd probably have other engine peices coated before i did the pipe underneath the car.

 

I would, but I plan to replace the L03, so coating it would be a waste. Everything I am doing now is build toward a modded 4th Gen motor. I'll probably coat that entire thing before I drop it in. Thinking about having the under carraige (not the suspension, just the underbody) Rhinolined. Like the truck bed-liner.

 

You might consider POR-15. Easy and cheap.

You mean for the exhaust or the engine?

 

The under body.

Oh. That would be good.
That stuff looks good and lasts. What color do you think would look good. I was thinking about unpolished aluminum grey.
