Default Exhaust Cost?

I'm about to buy an 88 with 39K miles, it's in great shape but needs an exhuast system (the mufflers are rusting through). What can I expect to pay for a stock system?

I replaced the entire exhaust system on my 90 for about $800.00 including labor. I used the 'no pre cat' front 'Y' with hi flow main, but everything else was stock.

Welcome aboard :seeya

Welcome to the Forum. :seeya I didn't stay stock when I replaced my exhaust. I went with muffler eliminators and my total cost was $92.

First off are you wanting to do this once or agian.. Do you want headers,straight pipe cats and then muffs running with 2 1/2 to 3 inch pipe.. Or there was a guy asking about side pipes. Very cool till you burn you girls legg on it or yours in the summer time wearing shorts. Not good..

Anyway,try flowmasters..They have worked great on a few cars of mine and have that awesome crackle..

This is my 1st Vette, I want to keep it all stock. I'm getteing pretty hyped, I test dorove it quite a while and did'nt want to give it back. It's a nice original good running low milage car. I was surprised how much power and how well it drove and handled for an 88. I looked at and drove quite a few until this one came along. It's black with a chocolate near perfect leather interior. It will however need the exaust fixed and a new set if tires. Thanks for the replies.
