Spent 170.00 at the parts store. Got enough exhaust crap to get through emissions (yes, I actually have to do that still) and ended up with a 40 series flowmaster too. Pics to come later
 
Yes, yes it would. I've had mine long enough its exempt, despite not being old enough

:)
 
Have y'all ever seen 8 exhaust clamps in a 4 foot span?



Well I have....




Under my own truck.



This is temporoary, but it is better than I had and better than the 'Burb had.

Hope they pass that without the exhaust coming out from under the cab
 
It's out from under the cab! Not the bed, but doesn't it just have to be past the passenger compartment of it is under the truck?
I don't know....
 
That's all it has to do in Utah, I think just go 2' past the cab. Not sure how it is where you live. I will purposely never live where there is emissions. State inspections are bad enough.
 
I got the homie hookup.


Well kinda.


In Colorado everything south of '82 goes to state certified, yet independent, repair facilities. They have the equipment and legal authority to pass or fail.

The guy that I go to won't pass you without merit. But for an extra 30-40 bucks he'll adjust stuff to help you out.

He cares about whether or not it will pass. Ndoesn't care too much about the BS.
 
That is a lot of clamps...I would have just welded it...maybe you don`t have a welder or whatever...don`t matter anyway, you made it nice and neat looking.

Good luck passing the test! :thumb: What a pain in the ass that crap is! :doah:
 
Holy u-bolts batman! I thought I was the only one that did that. Lost a muffler in the snow outside of Westcliffe in the 75 a couple years back with duals set up like that. Funny thing was that it took me most of the ride back to realize I was missing one.

Good luck on the sniffer test. So glad I don't have to fool with that crap down here. Cough...no cats...Cough..
 
You added at least 13hp with those clamps.. All shiny like that. Time for the mall.
Why wouldn't it pass? I've seen smog guys do magic here to get stuff through.. Retard timing, wet blanket over radiator etc..
 
I think everyone could be misunderstanding the emissions thing. I have no doubt that I will pass emissions once I actually try. The reason I bought all of this instead of using the old stuff is because the old stuff was rotted and falling out from under the truck. The old headers that I had were junk. I used a set of TBI exhaust manifolds and y-pipe, had the catalytic converter from the suburban, but that was it. Taking into account that I don't have a welder, I simply did what was the best combination between expense and functionality. Plus, as I already mentioned, this is temporary.
