98 Sierra 5.3 exhaust options? Pics needed!

[Jay 8850]

Just drove my 98 Sierra OBS swapped 5.3 for the first time last night. Wanting to know what you guys have done for exhaust. Right now I have Schoenfeld full length headers and thats it, not leaving it that way. Will run high flow cats after the headers, trying to keep it somewhat emissions legal, but what have you guys done from there? Want it to have some rumble but not obnoxious, true duals with same side exit, maybe something like 2nd gen Lightning style?

BTW, I do have a cam swap already planned...

I did true dual mandrel bent 3" all the way back with an h-pipe through magnaflows. It's a little loud but no drone on the highway at all.

[Jay 8850]

Any loss of torque going all the way out the back with 3"?

[Chevydillan]

Not at all. This thing has really good low and mid range.

[Jay 8850]

Good to know, no loss of torque. Was yours a kit from the cat back or did a shop put it together?

[Chevydillan]

I built it myself

[Jay 8850]

Nice!

I built mine as well. I also did dual 3" with an H pipe using mandrel bends. Its 14" x 4" x 9" Magnaflows, I have turndowns on it as of now but they are not pictured. Here's a few pics.

That's almost mine exactly

I think I remember you saying that in my build thread. I am considering adding tailpipes to mine eventually but it sounds great now.
