  Afternoon Gents. Just and FYI from American Racing Headers if didnt know  they do make a complete Exhaust system for A body cars to go along with the mMonte headers, 2.5 and 3" system from headers back even though the Monte Engines sits back 4" ,ARH said the system will work, can get all clamps , and hangers. do have the oval tips in 2.5", 3". pricey though. $2,324.53

That’s Gardner price.

I’ve got a Gardner 69 Chevelle chambered exhaust on my 70.  Love it. Practically fell into place during install.  I have factory manifolds, not headers. It would be pretty loud with headers and chambered.

Doug’s ceramic coated headers and Pypes 3 inch x exhaust works great as well. Sounds good too

I have Gardner on my 71 SS and sitting here waiting to go on my 70 SS. Expensive but fits like a glove ( not like OJ’s).

For a modified build ARH are a very good choice. You won't be disappointed..

I went with ARH headers, very pleased. Yes they are pricey, but I don't think ive seen any other brands tuck up so nicely . I don't know of anyone with a Monte that went with the exhaust system so I'll just say this. The headers are spec'd for Monte's, the exhaust system is spec'd for A body cars. Just my .02

Exactly. What heard from Pypes ,American   OPGI. Is the A body system should fit the Monte’s . There is a place in Charlotte pretty close to me that does custom . I want to go ARH HEADERS , but I also like the Gardner exhaust systems . From what I’ve looked up the Gardner only hooks up to stock manifolds didn’t see anything about system to headers.

Wonder if the custom shop could get the Gardner to adapt to the ARH.

I’m sure they can but in that case I wouldn’t order the Gardner. It’s way to expensive to cut up and modify.

I picked up a relatively new dual exhaust set up for a 70-72 chevelle off marketplace ( factory manifolds) and I bolted it right up to my 72 Custom 454. Not what that is supposed to have but it beat nothing. I’ll correct it on the restoration.

I'm more surprised that ARH has a different header for the big block Monte, but I guess they're taking advantage of the extra room at the back of the engine.

I'm running headers and a Pypes crossmember back exhaust, both made for Chevelles. The engine is in the same place relative to everything but the front crossmember and suspension between the two cars.
