Stainless Exhust

[bugatti]

I have a couple of questions. I have the chance to get stainless steel pipes from my neighbor for free. They are straight pipes, I would have to have them bent to fit a 1980 vette. My uncle owns a muffler shop and said he could bend them for me. Someone told me that they might crack and might blow out in a short period of time. My question is what gauge of stainless should I get? Some of the vette catalogs brag about having 16 gauge. Does anybody have any suggestions? Has anyone done this made their own?

Mufflers? I want to get the Flowmaster 40's. Is there much of a difference between the Delta Flow 40 and the Original 40?

I went with the 50's. The Deltas of both series are supposed to have less resonance and volume. I like my Delta 50's. Here are some pictures and a sound clip.

Looks like a nice system. Now there is something ya don't see a lot. A trailer hitch on a vette.

And I think it was the stock unit. Someday I'm going to take it off, take Navel Jelly to it and see what I can get for it on EBay.
