Wondering, what would be a fair price for a complete dual exhaust for a late B body? I'm assured it's the same for the 71 and up B's. Have a lead on a complete NOS 79 Magnum exhaust. Want to know what's a fair price to offer? Mufflers and all. Manifolds back. It's a non-cat system too by the way

I'd start by pricing what a local shop will charge you to fab a system, labor + parts. It'd give you a baseline to start w

I was at the muffler shop today and got an estimate of $350.oo.
That is for a 68 Chrysler new port.
I have mechanical Aptitude.
I can screw up anything.

I've done my own exhaust systems 3 or 4 times now. I'll spend about $300 or so in mufflers and pipes/bends, then cut and weld them all together myself, ensuring a great fit, and no leaks.
might not be any cheaper, especially for the guys who say "yea, but your time costs money!!" I look at it as "I get to spend a day relaxing in the garage fabricating and welding"

I had the exhaust done on my Newport last summer (duals). I supplied the mufflers. Cost me $375 cash. I asked for ball sockets where the head pipes meet the intermediate pipe and it was no extra charge.

I called the shop where I had my original system put on, and if I supply the mufflers, he said, since you already have a system in place, probably $200 tops. I don't care if it's NOS or not. It's under the car anyway. Thanks all!

money well spent to have a shop do it.3-4 hundred is about the rate here in the midwest
