E body exhaust into A body

Hey I get it, I've definitely plumbed the exhaust on more than a couple vehicles with leftover pipes, generic parts and a few extra connectors and elbows.

But that's mostly because I can do the work myself. And honestly some of the stuff I did in the past I wouldn't do again, I'd just buy the right kit to begin with. If it can be done for $200 or less I don't think it's a bad plan at all. Just realize that at some point it's probably more cost effective to just buy the right kit!

Does anyone make a bolt on manifold back exhaust system for a big block A body? Accurate LTD has the reproduction stock style maybe? I’m going to have to go custom with the head pipes no matter what I believe.

it’s $483.08 for the summit A body 2.5”(just to compare apples to apples.) shipped with tax to my door. Add to that paying my exhaust shop to fabricate the head pipes and attach them to the summit kit. Best case scenario is $650-750 I think. 483 for the kit and 175-275 for 2-4 shop hours and materials.
