Real dual exhaust pipes?
Does anyone have full length dual pipes?
If so I am interested in the routing, pipe size, and mufflers you used.
Pics of routing under car would be great.

Re: Real dual exhaust pipes?
Unless I’m not understanding what was sent me, the setup is not a true dual exhaust. There is a crossover from one bank at the trans area, one pipe through the center by the driveshaft center bearing to after the rear axle, and then split to two pipes for exit. This is the same as the factory “dual pipe” system on the Olds Jetfire Turbo. Factory Jetfire system is available from Waldron but is for a Turb system and not right for a standard eng.
My exhaust guy did something similar saying these cars were not designed for a true dual exhaust and it would have to hang down too far on the drivers side.
These are only 215ci engines and do not need large pipes especially in a dual pipe setup. If I did it again I would explore routing two small like 1.5” through the center hump area at the center bearing with a “H or X” pipe somewhere, Flowmaster HP mufflers either before or after axle and exit as true duals. Have to have it on the rack at the exhaust shop and check on pipe calcs but I think it would work.
