exhaust for a 83 chevy
I just bought a 83' chevy caprice and it needs a new exhaust.I want to put dual exhaust on but dont know where to start.Would I have to get the new pipes bent a certain way or can i put on straight pipes?Also of anyone know of a website that can show me how to do it or show some pics of how its done let me know.

You need a tubing bender to do it properly. Best left for a shop to custom make the pipes.
They probably have already done one of these cars before so it should be a breeze for them.
You must keep the catalytic converter intact but can put duals after the cat legally. It also must clear the axle and other obstructions underneath.
A job for a muffler shop, no doubt.

Taking the cat off does nothing. You get zip in the way of added HP. It will also cause the car to fail the exhaust emission check (at least a visual inspection).
It won't affect the way it sounds out the back of the car. The mufflers will give the needed effect. With a 305 in there, it won't sound all that hot--not much ooomph from a 305.
