Hello! I just got my first GMC Motorhome! We (my family of five) have been traveling and camping in a 31' Holiday Rambler Aluma-Lite XL for 3 years now, turns out we love RV'ing. It was a great RV but the GMC has some advantages that I wanted experience first hand so I sold the HR and started looking for a GMC. There was one for sale in El Paso, TX that looked good to me for a lot of reasons, so I ended up getting it and driving it back to Buffalo, NY. I posted my experience on that 2000 mile trip here: http://www.classicwinnebagos.com/forum/index.php?topic=14874.0 Hopefully this doesn't violate any rules about sharing info from a competing website, but they aren't really competing, they are more focused on Winnebagos .

I'm going to have a lot a questions, but my first one is regarding the exhaust. Can I get a stock system from the manifolds back? Mine is totally gone except the down pipes but I think even they have been cut off at the ends.

Any other options? Do people put bigger pipes or dual exhaust on these?

Where did the stock system hang? After the Y pipe, did it hang underneath the passenger side frame rail? Where would I look for the pipe hanger attachment points?
