TORRANCE, Calif. (Dec. 8, 2004) - New from Edelbrock are exhaust systems for popular diesel Ford, Chevy and Dodge trucks. Made with 4"-diameter mandrel-bent aluminized steel tubing, they feature the Edelbrock chambered muffler which offers more power and a performance sound.

Chassis dyno tests on a 2002 7.3L Ford equipped with a prototype system produced gains of 17 hp and 10 ft/lbs. of torque over a leading brand. This all aluminized steel muffler features Edelbrock's unique, patent-pending chambered design with no filler material to deteriorate, and includes our new Ti-Tech coating. Tailpipes are polished 304 stainless steel and all hardware is zinc-plated for maximum corrosion protection and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Applications include #5783 for 2001-03 Chevy/GMC trucks (downpipe back) with 6.6L Duramax (crew cab, long bed); #5788 for 2001-03 Chevy/GMC (downpipe back) with 6.6L Duramax (crew cab, short bed); #5789 for 2001-03 Chevy/GMC (downpipe back) with 6.6L Duramax (extended cab, long bed); #5784 for 1998-01 Dodge (turbo back) with 5.9L Cummins (crew cab, long bed); #5785 for 2002-03 Dodge (downpipe back) with 5.9L Cummins (crew cab, long bed); #5786 for 1999-02 Ford (turbo back) F-250/F-350 with 7.3L Power Stroke (crew & extended cabs, long & short beds) and; #5787 for 2003 Ford (cat back) with 6.0L Power Stroke (crew & extended cabs, long & short beds).
