For some reason I cant find any long tube headers for my 2001 1500hd 6.0L. Am I not lookin hard enough? Can someone point me in the right direction. Also whats your opinion on long tubes, H pipe and dual out before the rear tire with no mufflers? Im goin for a loud deep sound with little to no rasp/popping. Any advice is appriciated. What size exhaust tubing etc. Doesnt have to be legal so no cats/loud as hell is perfectly fine. Thanks yall!

Normal 5.3 longtubes will work as long as they clear the trans

Does the stock exhaust hit? If it doesn't long tubes won't plus crossmember is in the way I think

No mufflers is always a bad idea

no mufflers is not what will give you the found you described. Do a little more research (youtube, forums) There are many opinions, just don't cheap out. You,ll regret it later.

If ya want it loud just go with longtubes > H pipe > flowmaster 10 series > then out before the tires. Not that I'm a huge fan of flowmaster but my buddy has them on his dodge and they are loud, probably louder then my 6.0 with glasspacks dump right after the cab. There isn't a lot of room between where the exhaust comes together on the passanger side and before the tire, enough to get an exhaust setup in there but it will all be pretty short. To get both mufflers in there though you will have to mount then vertical instead of being horizontal.
