- Will installing an H-pipe help the exhaust note of my 1986 Chevy Suburban with a 454? The engine is basically all stock minus headers and full exhaust. Watch a short version of a cold start comparison video here, • Cold Start Big Block C... . Links below for the products used on the truck. Thanks for watching.

That's the best look H pipe I've ever seen!
I'll take it! 😁👍 Thanks
I had an x-pipe on my LS vehicle and I wanted to see what a h-pipe would sound like so I made my own. Before I welded the h-pipe in I tried just plain dual pipes like you had. The dual pipes were a hot mess, the engine lost power and it sounded awful. The h-pipe sounded great, and gave me that old school V8 noise I was missing. But, in the end, I put the x-pipe back on because I like high revs and it just feels smoother overall.
I need to do some work to my 2wd 1500 and it has the 4.8 in it. I may have to add exhaust work to the list now 😂..
Seems to have calmed the rasp down a ton thank you for taking the time to make this comparison video!
It most definitely calmed it down. I did the best I could trying to show the sound comparisons between before and after. The difference was night and day, I was extremely surprised and happy with the results definitely worth it! Thanks for watching and commenting 👍.
Man, that did the trick big time! Beautiful work on that exhaust. That's one badass Burban now.
Appreciate it... Needs a little more radical cam now...😂... Hopefully soon, but then along with a cam comes heads, intake and fuel injection .... The cycle never ends... I'm just trying my best not to start another project 😂😂😂
That thing sounds great, love the stock chop!
Appreciate the watch and comment 👍. It does sound pretty good for basically all stock..😎
Mannn I like how the transmission change out gettin on it👏👏
Right on! The truck is a blast to drive... Have plans to do some work to it here soon... (hopefully) 😂
I still don’t know why to this day H-pipes are not as popular as X-pipes. I installed an H-pipe on my 2019 Tundra and it got louder and deeper. X- pipes are quieter in the lower RPM’s but get louder and raspier at higher rpm’s. But if you’re after a deeper tone get an H-pipe. Your vehicle sounds wicked by the way :)
Appreciate the feedback, thanks... This is the first time I've run any kind of H/X pipe... And I am definitely a believer in the H-pipe now... While in the video you can hear a difference, obviously my audio wasnt the greatest (I tried). The video doesn't do it the justice it deserves..😁😎👍
Just not true at all ppl run x pipes bc they sound better, sound like higher rpm, and clean up raspiness vs add, if anything a h pipe especially on v8s makes gutteral raspy noise not high pitch x pipe perfection
No you have me curious about X pipes...🤔🤙😎
@@ChallengeTheBuild i promise if u get a good x pipe u will be pleased, I heard a 2018 camaro x pipe vs none comparison in real life, the x pipe sounds about 1200 rpm higher
@Grass_roots_auto you're totally wrong and full of shit. X-pipes on most V8s create a higher pitch sound, more resonance, and raspier compared to H-pipes. Instead of your opinion, post facts.
Great job, looks clean! Sounds pretty sweet. Like the pops when you let it go :) I do prefer a dual setup like an H-Pipe after the mid mufflers but an X-pipe right after the cats.
Appreciate the feedback. Now that I drive it a little more often I think I may change out to a 50 series muffler.... Try and tone it down a little bit more...🤷♂️
My setup is too quiet I might replace my bullet mids by UPOWER resonators, more direct, not sure...
Loud pipes save lives! 😂😂
Nice job on the exhaust cool truck
Appreciate it...👍 Thanks for watching and commenting...
I had h pipe on my 55 Chevy 1st and it sounded great … mean deep low frequency hot rod
I was extremely surprised with the difference in tone change... I never expected it to be that extreme... I am now curious about an X-pipe..🤔👍😎
Ive noticed that when you run tailpipes, you get that raspiness. They're almost like megaphones. Mufflers that are turned down have less of that popping. I like crossovers and at times resonators to tone down the excess noise. Thank You for playing the music of our people😁
Right on! I haven't messed with resonators much but can see how they can play an important part in changing the tone of the exhaust... It definitely is the music of our people! 🤣😂💯🤙 Hopefully I will be doing a cam swap sooner than later also...
I was really impressed/surprised at how much the exhaust note changed once I added the H pipe/crossover...
Awesome work. Definitely sounds great with the H pipe
Appreciate the watch and feedback... Next thing to do is install a little more camshaft in it, get a little more of a radical chop... But that is later..😂😂
@@ChallengeTheBuild you're welcome 👍
It sounds a lot better! I didn’t realize how much difference it would make!
I tried my best with audio clarity🤷♂️. I was extremely impressed with the difference between the two. I think from now on if a vehicle gets true dual exhaust an H pipe will be in order.. It was a fun before and after experiment with a big payoff at the end..
Running! “(Nice Video)
I just realized I responded with the wrong reply... Im sorry... 🤦♂️🤦♂️ I wasn't paying attention. Thanks for watching.
I'd love to see a Dino pull on some of these before and after....! Love your h pipe design I might copy ya!
I really wanted to do this exact thing before putting headers and exhaust on the truck to get a nice base line... BUT unfortunately that didn't happen. However I have plans for some more engine work at some point so I want to dyno it before doing the work (Intake, Fuel Injection, MSD 6al ignition system, cam and maybe heads?) But that's a ways away unfortunately, Im not TH-cam rich or famous yet..😂😂😂
The H pipe made a really big difference, definitely worth the time and effort! Thanks for watching and commenting..
Nice ride BB power.
Thank you😎💯👍
I love the sound of your H-Pipe! Is the crossover pipe the same size like your exhaust pipes or did you choose a smaller in diameter pipe?
The H-pipe was the same size. Everything is 3". Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍
@@ChallengeTheBuild thanks for your fast response. I have a goodwrench 350, sovI'll do all with 2,5". A friend told me something about a smaller crossover pipe than the rest exhaust pipes may be better, he got the info from Flowmaster homepage. What do you think? In my opinion same size means best exhaust exchange between the banks!?
Sounds better with h-pipe. I’d put a lift and some All terrains on that truck
Sounds way better with the H-pipe!👍👍 I'd really like to turn it into a dually suburban (hopefully🤷♂️) ... My philosophy is 2wd go low and 4wd go up... This is a 2wd, so low and slow...😂😂
Yeah you need to change to magnaflow has a lower frequency sound than the flow master that why you have that high end clatter still
These are cheap knock off Flowmasters, a real flowmaster probably would sound better. Overall I am very pleased with the sound and the H-Pipe DEFINITELY helped with the upper rpm chatter (it's not perfect but better). I'd rather change the camshaft 😂😂 and at some point I plan to...
So did u regain back pressure? Or does it still chatter. And with the h pipe do it still idle the same
Idle is a little smoother and deeper in tone, chatter is gone in the higher rpms (still loud just no chatter) and I assume I regained a little back pressure. Overall for this specific application the H-pipe was a HUGE success!
It lowers the back pressure (good thing).
Well that’s settles It, I’m putting an H Pipe on my 78 bronco. Big block, Cam, headers and dual 2.25 exhaust is choppy as ever. Basically only sounds good at idle. I’ll just up to dual 2.5 with an H pipe instead
I was really really surprised at how much the tone changed, and it definitely helped with removing the chatter when under heavy acceleration. All in all it was worth it... I hope you have the same success! 👍
@@ChallengeTheBuild thanks dude! It should be good. Another issue that I’m sure is adding to the sound issues it mismatched mufflers. My father in law did wild stuff back on the day when we rebuilt the motor
I also used magnaflow
I have a Magnaflow on my wifes suburban and it has the 8.1(496) but that truck does have dual catalytic converters so it's pretty quite comparatively speaking...
You should straight-pipe the engine.
My neighbors would love me!😂😂
@@ChallengeTheBuild My neighbors don't care.
True duals always seem to sound better on older V8’s
Agreed... I'm patiently waiting until I can install a little more rowdy camshaft.
H-pipes have a higher resistance wich make it sound deeper but x-pipe has better flow if you go with oem pipe size or yoe can always oversize 1/4"...it just depends what sound you want out of your vehicle
Appreciate the input. I think an X pipe is going on my Silverado once I install a cam and headers.. 👍
That loudness is also the 454 my truck was a 350
No replacement for displacement 😁 the 454 definitely has a distinctive big block sound compared to a SBC....😎💪
What kind of exhaust
It's just 3" steel, I was supposed to paint it but never got to it! 🤷♂️. Amazon budget special 😁
19:00 RPM is a plural expression; revolutions per minute...would you be caught dead saying revolutions per minutes. Why not REVOLUTIONS PERS MINUTESESESESES?
I will be surprised if you make it home on $10 of fuel.
I watched from the minute mark ypu called out and am slightly confused by this comment...🤷♂️ And I think it was 10 gallons not $10... Appreciate the watch and even the comment...👍
before h pipe sound like azz. h pipe MUCH better
I agree, H pipe sounds so much better...
