75 firebird custom exhaust
whats up everyone?
im restoring a 75 formula and turning it into a trans am clone i have a done up 355 engine and im turning my focus on my exhaust now comming from my headers i want my exhaust to travel down the drive shaft the turn out and exit just before the rear wheel, i know this is a common exhaust set up so i was wondering if anyone had some dementions of what to cut the pipe, i already bought a 10' section of 2.5" aluminum and i have my own pipe bender i plan on running strait pipes with no mufflers oh and the headers are holly flow tech's if anyones got any idea's on angle's to bend the pipe to make it come out at the rear wheel that would be great thanks!

do not bend the pipes your self go and buy mandrell bends because when u bend yourself the pipe diameter goes from 2.5 to about 1.75 or less so you lose alot of flow and madrell bends stay at 2.5 all the way through

i seen those corners u were talking about but i must have found different ones cause they were shit, it went from 2.5" to like 1" then back up to 2" then finally 2.5"
they were all welded up at the seams and just looked like crap, ill keep looking but as it stands im going to put a 60 degree bend in the pipe to shoot out the side
