Thanks for the info, my stock muffler is going south and I will need a replacement soon. What did it cost you if you don't mind telling? I checked out the website and they don't list prices.

I just bought it through my local muffler shop and parts and labor were $230.00. He didn't mark up the muffler but I think there around $165.00.

I thought the GM OEM exhaust systems were all stainless steel??

 

How many miles did your truck have when the muffler went bad?

I had a Gibson on my old 4.8 and it sounded way better then my Dads 5.3 with a Flowmaster 70. I have contacted Gibson they don't offer a wide range of systems yet for the NBS 2500HDs. They did give me a part number for the Muffler that will replace the factory unit. Apon asking I found out this is the actual part number there kit will use. I am going to weld this muffler into my factory Exhuast system. I have a 08 NBS 2500HD 6.0 Ext cab Standard bed. The earlyest they may have a kit ready for the public is 3-4 months.

 

Gibson Part Number: 788040 (Add an S to the end for stainless)

 

Round, 4'' In X 4'' Out X 8" Round'' X 24'' Body Length X 30" Total

haha Yup, that's me! Joined here after I picked up my 1500HD. Love the truck! Wish it had alittle more growl... but didn't want to cut off the stock SS exhaust system like I did on my 99 Tahoe and had to replace that 3 times from rust.

Go the Corsa route! You can't go wrong with Corsa. Last time I looked on eBay there was a Touring system for a 2500HD (which will work on the 1500HD, just have the muffler shop change the 2 hanger locations) for a buy it now price of only $375. I had one on my 1500HD and as soon as they offer one for the NNBS, I'm getting one for this truck.

Under $400 for a full S.S. exhaust system would not be bad. I'll have to keep my eyes open for a deal like that. Thanks!

      2020 Trailboss 6.2 replacement

      By 2017Z · Posted

      Looking for advice from this group. Took my flawless 2020 6.2 TB to an unnamed shop for routine rear brakes and oil change. Tech forgot to put oil back in after the full service and needles to say, destroyed my engine.  It’s all on their shop video so they are responsible.   I had my Chevy dealer do the analysis and they confirmed its compromised and said engine replacement. The manager said they only get GM reman engines from GM with full 3 yr warranty and the one they would put in is not same as what’s they are swapping out on 21-25 for recall.    I am looking for advice why that would be a different engine because obviously I had the good 6.2 year and replacing it has my concerns with that recall for 21-15   Also what’s the pros and cons of accepting the engine swap vs telling the shop that bricked the truck to pay up so I buy a new truck. I’m concerned about stigma resale eventually if I just decide to get rid of it after the swap or other issues showing up after the swap out.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By GN2018 · Posted

      Just looked up my records.  I've never gone over 5000 miles between oil changes.  At 46K miles, I have 10 oil changes.  I hope that will help.  I also installed the disabler last year.  I've still had a few times when it didn't seem to engage (which I can tell because the start stop feature kicks in), but for the most part, I think it's working.  For some reason, GM did not include the number of cylinders running in the information screen like I had on other models.  In my Cadillac, it shows me when it's running on 4 cylinders on the fuel milage screen.  I can't find that on my '21 Denali.

      AFM Disabler Question

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Melling I believe is/was the OEM on the lifters who explored this problem some years ago. The white paper they generated on the topic indicated two items of note when I read it. 1.) They only fail on the switch. Prevent the switch, prevent the failure. 2.) The majority fail due to deposits messing up the timing of that switch. Anyway that's what I got from it.    Mine have always been active, 195K+ now, and my oil maintenance is surgically clean.    Of course this assumes good parts. That is no heat treat issue or machining flaws. I get comfortable that these issues are in the rearview mirror by about 30K. IMHO naturally.

      2 speed transfer case optional now?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      Yes, the key seems to be with the half tons that if it has the Z71, then it definitely has the two speed. What got me was that the two speed AND the lower geared towing package option could not be chosen together the last few years unless it was mated up to the 6.2. Want the 3.0 duramax and 3.73 tow gears ... nope, can't get the two speed transfer case ( neighbor son realized that after he had bought his used 3.0 half ton .. where the frick is the low range ? ! ).    I am still unsure which truck series, the half ton or the HD truck that the original poster is referring to for sure other than yes his question is in the HD section of this forum but that doesn't guarantee the question got asked in the right section.
