    Exhaust install cost????

    Hey guys what are typical exhaust installation cost. I will be running 2.5 pipe. I have already purchased a pair of 40 series flowmasters. I have a 5.3 in a 1987 short bed.

    Thanks

    It depends on where you are located, however, it should run somewhere between $250-400.00. Take into consideration the material of the pipe, aluminum will be alot higher.

    aluminum exhaust pipe? I hope you meant aluminized for rust prevention. Now stainless will cost a whole lot more and if its the right grade will never rust in your lifetime or the life of the truck. Don't be fooled, some grades of stainless do rust.

    Red, do you know the grade(s) to look for, on the stainless?
