      3" Pipe All The Way To The Rear?

      I have a 67 Camaro. I am running 3" pipe to 1 chamber Flowmaster race mufflers and the exhaust dumps right before the axle. I am kinda tired of smelling exhaust fumes in the car when idling at the stoplight. I want to run 3" pipes to the rear.

      Do they sell a kit for over the axle w/ 3" pipes? Can a shop bend 3" pipes over the axle?

      Anybody have pics of just raw 3" pipes on the rear of your camaro? I don't want flashy chrome or anything.

      Does anyone have cut outs on their car? Is it worth the money? Im running a fastburn 385 with hot cam kit its good for 425 hp. What kind of gains should I see?

      3" is overkill for that engine. A 2-1/2" tailpipe will have more than enough capacity, have better fitment, and cost less.

      The Flowmaster 2-1/2" tailpipes fit very well if the muffler is a center-out.

      EDIT: Misread. Thought it was SINISTER's FB385.

      The Pypes 3" kit required significant fitment changes to work in my friends '68, but that kit was from 2002. The Flowmasters may fit better. 3" does fit on both of our cars but it is very tight, and especially difficult with composite leafs.

      Magnaflow rates their 2-1/2" mufflers for well over 800HP/pair.

      I'm not sure about your car, but on my '69, there is not enough room between the leaf springs and the rear quarter panel to fit a 3" pipe. I'm running 3" from the headers back to the 2 chamber Flows, then 2 1/2 from the mufflers over the rear axle and out between the rear 1/4's and the leaf springs. the 2 1/2 is a tight fit.

      Look at the Pypes kit SGF63, it's 3" with Quarter exit tailpipes. I believe there is a picture on their website in the install gallery.
