Default Interest in B&B GP?

I did all the research and found that Billy Boat S/S Tri-Flow Cat Back Exhaust System has improved on their resonance problem by modifing the muffler. The system is really great looking with polished tips and mufflers and you get a choice now of 3" or 2 1/2" systems. The 2 1/2" system is supposed to be quieter, but doesn't produce as much horsepower gain that the 3" does (6-7HP vs 10HP). So far the two leading prices I've found are Mid America Designs http://www.madvet.com @ $999.99 plus shipping & handling and T Byrne Motorsports http://www.tbyrnemotorsports.com/vettecatalog.html at $949.99 plus shipping & handling (which for me was $46. to SC).

If enough interest is generated maybe one of our vendors will jump in and make us an offer. Oh one thing, B&B offers these exhausts for the L98 86-91, ZR-1 90-95, LT1&LT4 92-96.

ANYBODY INTERESTED?

How many buyer do you need to drop the price further?
Count me in.

I know it's only been a day, but I'm sure more guys want to get in this if it happens. I don't think 2 is enough for a vendor to get excited about it. I'll give it a few days. :cheers:

You would probably need 10, although, maybe 5 might be enough.


Have you tried contacting anyone yet?

Tom, I ordered mine back in April when TBYRNE had a 10% off sale going. Drop Tom a note at tbyrne@tbyrnemotorsports.com and let him know you're interested. Also let him know how pleased I am with mine. The exhaust is actually shipped from B&B, so he doesn't have to keep them in stock. :steering:

No, not about a group purchase. I just wanted to see if there was any interest out there before I ask.

Hi Ransome, I've already had correspondance with him and he seems like a good guy to do business with. This might be a bad time to try and start a group purchase.
