I’m looking for y’all’s thoughts on exhaust? I like the volume of my Empi Quiet Pack exhaust. But it is rusting pretty bad where it connects to the block.

Does anyone recommend a stainless exhaust that is quiet and will fit or are the tri-mil ceramic the way to go?

Ceramic will eventually rust from the inside out.
The CB header I have on my street car currently is showing rust. But it's at least 10 years old. So there's that.

I also have a stainless exhaust on my other mostly track car. It has no rust at all after 5+ years of sitting outside in rainy conditions. The SS exhaust does discolor a bit with heat from the exhaust passing through the header.
