What do you want for that pink couch?

I'd like to bring something like that home and put it in the living room before my wife gets home and hide our other couch.

For the bolts on the headers, ARP LS1 bolts is what I used.

You'll need a tune. It's going to run like *** until you get it tuned.

The muffler may be OK where it is but mine is closer to the axle.

That's a nice looking system! Where did you find the true dual midpipe?

That looks like a 6.0 setup

Interesting...Any idea where a dual mid-pipe like that can be purchased? I can't seem to find anything but a y pipe on line.

Kooks and Dynatech both offer them for their own header setups. More of a package deal.

I spent some time looking yesterday and did find the dual set up on the Kooks (and Summit) website. It appears to be a 2006 Silverado SS 6.0 set-up (as mentioned by Snake-Oiler). I don't have a lot of knowledge of the different models of silverado i.e. SS with 6.0... but I am learning... Anyway it is Kooks part no. 28523200 3" catted connection pipe for use with kooks headers. As far as I can tell, the intermediate pipe will work in a rcsb of the same era and possibly later models as other non-SS y-pipes etc. look to be the same part no's between the two generations (mine is a 2010 rcsb 2 wheel drive with a 4.8).

Magnaflow offers a complementing SS 6.0 "intermediate pipe to exit" exhaust system part no 15840 includes, resonators, and magnaflow dual in dual out muffler but it looks like this is for a extended cab models only (apparently SS's are only extended cabs?). I prefer both pipes exit out the passenger side behind the tire anyway, so I will keep looking for this set-up or will have to get a custom set-up at a local exhaust shop. I won't likely be doing this until the spring or summer 2016, so I have time to search and learn...
