Hi
After searching nationwide last summer I found a very nice rust free 1997 Tahoe , three owners and very clean and stock; even the radio is OEM.
The truck has just under 195k on it now and appears to have good even compression. Oil consumption is about 1qt every 2500 to 3000 miles using 5w-30 Penz synthetic.
I have a mpfi upgrade going in soon when weather cooperates.
My concern is for more power by addressing the stock manifolds/exhaust by going dual if possible.
My shopping list must contain a set of headers and an exhaust system that is stainless. I plan on upgrading the cats as this is a smog state and I am guessing that the OEM cats aren't in the best of shape.
What suggestions can you guys make for the headers , cats, and exhaust.
Also, I don't want excessive noise in fact no drone at all is desired.
Thanks for your input. It is appreciated.
