Please bear with me while I wait for delivery of this C3...Do I have mufflers on these pipes? I was looking at photos that the seller provided attempting to locate the underbody attachment locations for the shoulder harnesses which I hope to install when this photo struck me as having funny looking mufflers...are these mufflers, glass-packs, or a poor man's set of lakers?
Hi Tom,
Go to the Allen's Exhaust site and look for "chambered pipes/exhaust".
I believe that's what you're seeing.
For a couple of years 69ish? some Camaros had them as an option?….maybe std with the Z28 package?
Very distinctive sound, but not a Corvette sound.
Regards,
Alan
Was at the Holz Chevy Corvette show a few years back. A BBC 69 original, low miler, and he said the chambered exhaust is an OEM option. Did it sound sweet! Just had to put it on my 69. T
Hi Terry,
I think the owner you were talking to may have been thinking of the mid-year side exhaust system which is a type of 'chambered pipe'.
It wasn't used or available after 1967 on a Corvette.

Would love to hear them, even through the computer.
I can solve that problem for you... this is the same exhaust on the 71 (top video).
I like this system, but my personal favorite is the stage II system with the 69 side pipe mufflers instead of the chambered. It offers a more throaty sound.
Obviously the camshaft will distort the sweetness of the exhaust too..
