Arrow Exhaust options for 2500LD ECSB?

I see plenty of exhaust systems for 4.8/5.3L trucks and 2500HD but nothing for 2500LD

Are there any decent systems out there or do I need to have some hillbilly pipes custom bent with some dynomax race mufflers or something

Personally I always do the hilly billy shake on my exhaust, until you get in high hp it just really doesnt matter, have them replace the muffler and from their back do what you want(dump, tips out the back, side tips, whatever) it's usually cheaper and will give you the same gains.

Kind of off topic, but is your 2500LD really an 04?. I thought starting in 03 the only configuration you could get a 2500LD in was CCSB.

Yes its an 04, they only made them for the first few months of 04 model year run...they stopped after 10/10/03.

I would recommend calling a few places about a kit. There's a few DI/DO muffs out there that I'd consider as they have built in X-pipes. I have one in my garage I'm going to use here...it's a 3" DI/DO w/ X-pipe from Magnaflow... No. 12469

I don't like them "hillbilly" pipes that are 2" with 3.5" chrome megaphones either. My fav pipes are ones that are tipped below the bumper a la Cadillac and Lincoln.

I need to get a look under the truck...I was just being sarcastic about the "hillybilly pipe" comment. I may do something similar to what I have on the bird...

Truck is just too damn quiet for me..that 100 lb muffler has to go

LOL, gotcha. Pretty much every truck here in Texas has them ol' chromies. Not for me. Oh hell, you could gather enough of the stock pontoons...er...mufflers and make a sea-worthy raft.

That must be the theme down south.. because around here you aint making power unless you got 3" straight pipes with the tips longer than the bumper out of the back..that can be heard 3 miles down the road...
