RE: whose got what exhaust.....?
That looks great! I like that. On my 97 I had the 5 chamber flowmaster that sounded great and wasnt too droning on long trips. My 93 stepside had the 3 chamber and sounded really great but the muffler shop guy told me to go with the 5 chamber in the Tahoe due to the passenger/cargo compartment being over the exhust system. He said the passenger/cargo area really amplifies the the sound and going with the 3 chamber would have drove me crazy. Both trucks had the 24 in long 3in dia chrome echo tips exiting out the rear.
I havent decided if I want to do anything with my 07 other them clean it up a little kinda like what you did, I'm liking the refined quiteness of the factory setup, that and now my wife doesnt know when I'm coming down the street when i come home in the evenings

What tip did you use? Was it long enuf to reach where the resonator was cut off or did you have to add a short piece of pipe?

Did not have to add any pipe. I went with ano-name rolled-edge angle-cutthat the local muffler shop had. The angle-cut makesit 18-in in length on top side, 16-in in length on bottom.
If anyone goes this route, invest in a good quality of stainless. I didn't spend the money because I wanted to make sure that I wouldn't have the drone.I'll have to replace in a couple of years with another one that is ofbetter quality. In the meantime, I'll have to continue my least favorite thing of polishing it.

re polishing it.. that is why I opted for the painting it black, you still have to clean it but its not near the work as that part of the vheicle is as dirty as it gets right behind the wheel.
