Yeah, but my question still stands. Have you crawled under your Blazer to figure out a route for the pipes? There's no point in photoshopping something if it's not possible.

This has been brought up before... you'll end up routing U-bent pipe under the frame rail for the side pipes, the resulting valley would result in build up of carbon and water and **** wouldn't it?

Yeah, I just thought I'd point that little issue out though... I looked at the possibility of a dual passenger side exit before the axle, but saw that the frame rail was sort of in my way.

That's what I was saying all along. There is no way to route around the frame rails that I'm aware of without going under it. Then you lose a hell of a lot of clearance, your pipe will be visible under the truck where it crosses under the frame rail, plus theres the issue with what Pat mentioned - having stuff build up in the U trap.
I'd see what an exhaust shop says though. I don't see it being possible, but you never know. Let us know how you make out.

well the shop says its doable but it will trap stuff and will cost me around 2 grand to do since i would need 2 new cats 2 sidepipe mufflers and covers. im just gonna go with a true dual setup at least that way i can have them put the single extra cat in an just go ahead and cut them both out once i get it back.

so it looks like Project Heartbeat is on hold for the time being. Lack of money means lack of mods.
