    98 Sierra 5.3 exhaust options? Pics needed!

    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.

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

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