Available from your Hummer dealer, part#6008595. Just a nice thing to dress up your truck, I haven't ordered mine yet but I imagine they'll look great above the 3500 badges on the doors.
Richard, how do you like the exhaust on the van? I was thinking about doing something with mine but I thought it might be too loud inside the cab since the inside airspace goes to the rear unlike a pickup.
Well, the exhaust is very good, as quiet as the original, inside or outside.
I used a 4" outlet, quiet Donaldson muffler with an attenuation rating of 12-18 dBa (quite good) with a low rated restriction of 1" Hg (1/2 psi) at 1000 CFM (I calculated that it is about what the engine produce at maximum horsepower).
I can really feel that the engine is stronger and breathing better especially in the higher RPM.
My system is custom, I made it with selected parts. If you want some hints at how to do it, I can give you the info. The vans are different than the trucks and you have to use a different approch to the exhaust system. A kit with stainless steel pipes in on the way.
The Montreal's Hummer dealer has 3 chromed 6.5 TD emblem in stock if you have difficulty getting them.Edited by: Richard7
Good idea, was probably never done. I couldn't find any performance aftermarket exhaust for those 6.5TD vans from any manufacturer. That's why I made it myself. Still somewhat a prototype, but working perfect.

Bucked a little then lost power and felt like close to stall in am drive. Pulled over tightened loose battery ground and moved pmd harness. Made it another 30 miles to work and seemed fine.

Just wondering why the sticker on the driver side valve cover would have Catalyst on it? It is a vin F engine and not a California model. Suburban was originally purchased in Oregon. Looking at the exhaust I see nothing except a muffler and it all looks stock.
