Diamond Fbody exhaust
 
Here's a pic of my Z28 at Diamond fabrications in June.Who says you cant have a 3rd gen with true duels,"H" or "X" pipe,and have tons of ground clearance.Heres proof!Diamond notched and boxed in the factory subframe.Then they boxed the floor in the rear for muffler clearance of just about any muffler I chose.The area boxed out is not used.Its under rear seats,and I was still able to put seats in. The entire system hangs no lower the my oil pan.Plus look at the quality of the hangers,And all the other custom work they did.Custom driveshaft loop,welded in subframe connectors,stainless brakelines front to rear,double adjustable rear coilover shock kit,and a ton more.

Money well spent! ;)

Looks great!

Do you have any clearance issues with the rear end cover and the panhard/track bar?

What about exhaust fumes inside the car? Do you drive it on the street much?

Its a slight pain in the ass to get the diff cover off,it clears the pan rod just barely.Yes I street drive it,and have no fume issues.Ive taken it to alot of local cruises and car shows this summer,and no problems.6 bolts to drop whole set-up to get tranny out.Thanks

Very nice. It sounds like Diamond is the place to go for Chassis work around here :D

Actually, I think they specialize in exhaust,turbos and superchargers, but they can and will do just about whatever you want.
