Flowmaster Question

I am looking for a full Flowmaster exhaust system to put on my 1982. But the problem is, everywhere I look, the only thing anyone has for an 82 is just a Flowmaster muffler. So is it possible to get a full system for an 82? If so, can someone tell me where or provide a link? Thanks.

I'm probably just stupid and can't figure it out, but the only Flowmasters I see on that are for C4 or later. I see other exhaust systems for C3, but no Flowmasters.

Do to Pollution laws dealers must only sell what is legal in the year of manufacture of each car. You may have to check what is available for earlier year vettes and then see if the earlier year is the same as your vehicle. it also depends if you are running cats or headers. once 1971 hit things changed and so are what you have to do to get your car to run right. you have to remember that early pollution regs are far from the best answer to improving cars performance and efficiency.

Find a custom exhaust place that will fabricate the exhaust for you. Ask them what size flowmasters to buy and your done. Don't forget the h pipe.

Find a good muffler shop. Examine your current system and modify with new 2 1/2 inch diameter aluminized pipe, replace cat; add h-pipe; select Flowmasters and tips, and weld, as needed.

I have their complete American Thunder system on a Camaro, sounds good. Unfortunately, according to their website, they don't make a system for early Corvettes.
