FINALLY....Dual exhaust on my 64/98
FIIIINNAAALLLY I got the DS STARFIRE dual exhaust manifold and dual exhaust fitted..... a couple of not exactly super pictures, but I guess it shows what it i supposed to. Maybe other ClassicOldsmobile members will get inspired.
The system is from Waldron Exhaust.. very very kind people at Waldrons. I got everything needed to fit it.. flanges, gasket, bolts, 2 different types of hangers simular to the OE, ofcause most of it wasnt included in the exhaust system but added on my request.
After ordering I regret not ordering a stainless system... but this will last a few years. I guess it is all right.

Will a chambered muffler look different ?
Both sides have the muffler or silencer if you like, in front of the rear axle, and a resonator after the rear axle. One thing is for sure...... it is veeery quiet. I need to figure out how to give it a deep note without ruin it.

Very cool that you got duals installed on your Olds.
Here are some highly recommended aftermarket mufflers:

We do not have exhaust shop as I understand you have in the US. Ours only do, how do you say, mainstream popular everyday car exhaust parts or complete, tires and maintenance repairs. I did try ask around and search. The only ones are customs shop, that do stainless and the prices I got was not what I would pay.
I can do it myself, and will do it. It just the combination of muffler or not, resonator or not that is the hard bit... trial and error I guess it is 😬

You might start another thread seeking advice on muffler and resonator selection. There are other members on our site with early 60s full-sized Oldsmobiles that can give you some input. FWIW, I have 45" Thrush glasspacks on my 71 98 that aren't available anymore. They are very loud. Actually, I'm considering changing to the Dynomax mufflers I linked earlier.

I run some sort of glaspack right now. I never got to try any of the flowmasters or similar.
As you have already been told, there are no way around the oe drivers side exhaust manifold. I was lucky to source a driver side manifold for a fair price rather quickly, and ordred the exhaust system right away.
