LMPerformance is selling Pypes Xpipes for GM B bodys for 167.88 shipped !!! Mine arrived thos afternoon. I cant imagine getting a stainless x pipe made for less considering that this is as close to an exact fit that you are going to find.

I have one on my 95 Caprice Wagon too, and I bought it years ago when Summit Racing or Jegs was blowing them out for like $120. Its a beautiful piece.

My mufflers have holes in them and will probably be in dire straights by spring. Typically are mufflers all that are required or does other stuff need replacement too?

The mufflers are literally triple wrapped, so they can often have holes in them for years and years before they finally let go. Mine had the outer layer ripped half off for years and were silent.

They finally failed by breaking the welded on connection of the front of the muffler. The mufflers had metal hanging from them that hung 3-4 inches off of them, but they didn't leak any sound or exhaust.

I wouldn't touch them unless you just want piece of mind.

Not touching them is piece of mind.

Thank you

I think the majority of the outer layer was gone from the mufflers for 3-4 years before they failed. lol

I wanted them gone, but when they failed the muffler shop rewelded the pipes and those stock mufflers were still quiet for 2-3 more years. They really lasted even tho they looked like heck.
