It was nice stuff. It's just all cleaned up and bagged like something from Vibrant etc.. I just scrubbed the oil off of it with soapy water before using any of it.

I used oval tubing from Vibrant to make my exhaust from the headers back to the mufflers for additional ground clearance and just because I don't like to see any of the exhaust below the rocker pinch weld..... I will say the oval stuff is spendy though.......

You can click around through this blog to see which kit this guy used. I find myself referring to his pictures fairly often during my build. I think he may have used a Stainless Works kit, but I can't remember - - Regardless - it's a really good blog.

Good Luck!
Thanks Brandon. That blog is Terry's car. He went an expensive route and started with a stainless works kit for ls chevy ii. But they only fit autos and do not work with the quadralink. He also had to source a bunch of bends and really didnt use much of the original kit. I like the idea of oval too, but it's not in my budget. I even had to buy a tig welder to do the stainless, all I had was a mig. I'll check out your link. I just really don't know what I'll need to buy individually I have zero experience building exhaust.
