My buddy and I might be installing his new exhaust saturday morning as well, but we might make it out if someone can give us some more details...

"HAZCC Annual Meeting Saturday, December 6th
Please mark your calendar for Saturday, December 6th and join your Heart of America Z Car Club for its annual meeting with installation of officers.
Our meeting will be held at one of our newest sponsors…Hendrick Nissan at 8400 Shawnee Mission Parkway in Merriam, KS. This is located a few blocks east of I-35.
The times are still tentative but here is an estimated schedule:
Prior to our meeting, the Hendrick sales team will be using our meeting room. Our schedule will need to work around theirs.
*Begin gathering around 8 to 8:30. Hendrick will be treating us to coffee and snacks.
*Our meeting will begin approximately at 9 am BUT it could start a little later. I encourage you to plan on being there by 9 am.
Our meeting will be short. There will be a financial report, membership update, a review of 2014, and introduction of your new 2015-2016 Board of Directors and Officers.
Please RSVP to Kit Lueg at luv2bass@everestkc.net (edit by mjb) Hope you all can make it."
The exact starting time of our meeting is still tentative. Our meeting room will be used by the Hendrick sales team and we'll have access after the adjourn....hopefully around 9 am.
The forecast says it will be dry tomorrow.

Well, if it rains tomorrow I may be able to actually make it to an event for the first time in forever. I can get a ton crap moved by not working until 6pm.

I'm currently drawing rain turtles...

Quick question. What is the downside to aluminum thick walled exhaust over stainless steel besides looks. Anyone?

cost...

aluminum takes extra care to weld, more expensive equipment, more expensive labor (i know aluminum welders who make $80+/hr), and needs to be relatively pure to resist/hold heat, cracking, and daily abuse. You're looking at easily $5k for a typical low end aluminum exhaust.


performance...

One interesting property of steel for exhausts is that it holds heat to a certain temperature so that you don't get a lot of thermal loss. The property of holding heat versus dispelling it allows gasses to be propelled out of the pipes rather than having to reheat the walls and lose energy like in aluminum

Hmm but how much performance really is lost.

Also does anyone else's Z make a creaking noise when you sit in it or after you engage the parking brake and let the brake pedal go?
