I would like to buy a complete exhaust system for my 82 K10 with a 350 / 4 speed to connect to the stock manifolds. Does anyone offer one? I know they are offered for many different kinds of cars.

I got my complete 2 1/4” system from Summit, and it was Flowtech 52525FLT. I used Magnaflow 11225 mufflers. I also used a Summit SUM- 642022 balance pipe, but that’s not required. I bought two extra hangars and some clamps locally to keep it supported better (I think it came with 4 hangars).

If you use the balance pipe you have to shorten the intermediate pipes to allow for the extra length, and you end up with a lot of clamps. Welding would make it cleaner, but I don’t have one.

AFAIK, nobody makes a 2 1/2” system off-the-shelf at a reasonable price for the 4x4 trucks.

Agreed, I don't recall finding any kits for my k5 that are 2.5" true duals.
I built mine, headers, cats, mufflers, h-pipe, and tips. Used magnaflow cost 1k after installation.

All the 2 1/4” exhaust systems I’ve seen online (LMC, Summit, etc.) for squarebody trucks will fit both 2WD or 4WD trucks. Pypes exhaust makes a 2 1/2” system (for about $1,100) for 2WD trucks, and in the notes they say it could be modified to work around a 4WD transfer case. However, there isn’t much clearance, so YMMV.

The Flotech manifold back system is about $200, and then you need two mufflers that will cost from about $40 on up to $140 each. I used the Magnaflow mufflers, which run about $100 each.

Dynamic makes a dual kit for manifolds too.

Several years ago I found a part # for a Hooker 2.5" kit. It was priced significantly higher than the standard 2.25" kit. I don't remember the part number, or even the name of the kit (Super Comp maybe), but it did at least exist at one time.

That would have been nice to have. I had to go with a builders kit and then add mufflers and cats.
