What kit is that? What Price? Looks to be nice.
I priced out a Pypes kit at $403 from jegs shipped with X-pipe included.
I'm pricing around.
 
Thanks.

What you see there (plus hangers which are not pictured) I got for $249CDN from a local shop that does the bending on-site.

I don't think I'm going to go with a X pipe but have the shop put in an H pipe.

Do you think the shop can duplicate your setup again?? I'd sure like the same for my wifes Duster....and the price is right too.

Yes, the kit will fit Dusters, Darts, Valiants and the A-body Barracudas.

Click on their 'exhaust kit' link. I got the 6774-A kit and altho the price list says $299 they sell it for $249.

I chose not to get it installed by these guys... I didn't get a good vibe when I stopped by a few months ago to ask about the kits nor when I went in this past Monday to buy it. It takes about 2 days for them to make and they'll be able to ship it out to you.

The Scamp goes into another shop to get the kit and all the bits I'll supply (tips and mufflers) on the 3rd.

Geez..what, these guys have too much business??? I've emailed them asking for a quote on supplying and shipping that same system (plus manifold headpipe kit) to me here in Victoria. 3 times they have gone unanswered. They must be just too busy makin' money!

Wadda I gotta do,eh?

Their (lack of) customer service was one reason why I chose not to get them to install the kit.

When I was first pricing out exhaust systems a couple of months ago I stopped to check the shop out. I got a quote for them to do the install including fabbing the head pipe, mufflers, tips and labour. They wanted $90/muffler (and they were knock-off flowmasters that can be had for $25/muffler), $175 for A-body tips (not a brutal price but not amazing either), along with ~$200 for fabbing the head pipes. They said the hangers the kit comes with are garbage and that I should use better hangers (add $45) and then said it would be ~$400 for labor. They also tried to convince me that welding the mufflers to the pipes was the way to go (instead of using clamps).

Altho their pricing was pretty high they were the only local ones I came across who did mandrel bent A-body kits. So when I went in last week to buy the kit, the shop was closed with a sign saying they'd be back at 2:45. Problem was it was 3:15 already (their business hours are Monday to Friday 9 to 5 or something like that). I decided to wait around a couple of minutes and called them (hoping they would have forwarded the shop phone to a cell) to see when they would be back. While waiting, Lordco stopped by to drop off some parts but had to turn around. I stopped by again this past Monday to buy the kit and the guy said it would take about two days and they would call me when it was ready. By Thursday afternoon I hadn't heard from them yet so I called to follow-up. They said the kit was ready since Wednesday late morning. So I'm glad I decided to not give them any more business than necessary and would rather spend the install money (and fabbing work for the head pipes) at a shop that has worked on the car before and has better customer service.
