3" exhaust for 1971 olds 442

Does anyone know of a nice complete 3" crossmember back exhaust system without a cross-over pipe for a 1971 olds 442. Looking for a stainless steel one. I also have gear vendors on the back of a TH400 so I am planning on welding the pipe to compensate.

I doubt you'll find a kit without a crossover. They've become the norm. Your best bet would be a builder kit and make your own.
I have a Pypes 3" on mine, but cut the over axle tubes to dump behind the wheel. It's cheap stainless.

Instead of buying a kit and getting parts you'll have to piece together, why don't you take it to a local exhaust shop? They'll be able to fabricate stainless or aluminized pipes either crush bent or on a mandrel.
