You're wanting to take the exhaust off the '92 Bonne and put it on the '93 Olds, right?

Not knowing the Olds 88 undercarriage at all, I'd have to say that you need to get a good look at clearances and hanger locations before you go any further. Also, compare the exhaust pipe diameter, which should be the same, I would think.

Other than that, I can't see any reason why this wouldn't work. You are doing this to get the dual exhaust look on your Olds, correct? Is the '92 Bonne a parts car?

um well i am going (within the next 2 months) to my best friends junk yard and he knows how much i miss having dual exhaust on my car and he said that he has a 1992 pontiac bonneville sse or ssei that one of them has dual exhaust and said that that should be a direct hook up so(god willing) the setup should work and i will have it on the 1993 olds delta88 within a year
but i think that the diameter is pretty close and i could buy an adapter

Then it sounds like you should have no difficulty.

If you want a dual exhaust system thats from a gm car go with the GP system that way you can have two mufflers and it sounds better I think.
