Frequently Asked Questions About International 8100-8300 Elbows, Piping & Comp.

What years and models do these exhaust elbows fit?

Our exhaust elbows and piping components are designed to fit International 8100 and 8300 series trucks from 1989 through 2004. These parts are compatible with both single and dual exhaust configurations. Before ordering, verify your truck's specific year and exhaust setup, as some variations exist between early models (1989-1999) and later models (2000-2004), particularly in mounting bracket positions and pipe diameters.

Are these elbows made from aluminized or stainless steel?

We offer both aluminized steel and 304 stainless steel options. Aluminized steel elbows typically last 3-5 years under normal conditions and are more budget-friendly. Stainless steel components offer superior corrosion resistance and can last 8-10 years or more, making them ideal for trucks operating in harsh weather conditions or coastal areas. Each product listing clearly indicates the material type in the specifications.

What tools and additional parts do I need for installation?

Installation typically requires basic hand tools including socket wrenches (usually 15mm and 17mm), a reciprocating saw for removing old components, and exhaust hangers. You'll also need new exhaust clamps (we recommend heavy-duty 5-inch clamps for most applications) and high-temperature exhaust sealant. Installation usually takes 2-3 hours for experienced mechanics. Some configurations may require minor adjustments to hanger positions.

What's the difference between OEM-style and performance elbows?

OEM-style elbows maintain factory specifications with standard wall thickness (typically 16-gauge) and factory bend angles. Performance elbows feature thicker walls (14-gauge), mandrel bends for improved flow, and often have a larger diameter (5-inch vs. 4-inch stock). Performance options can reduce exhaust backpressure by 15-20% but may require modifications to existing mounting points.

How do I measure for the correct elbow angle and length?

Measure from the turbo outlet or exhaust manifold to where the pipe needs to turn, accounting for any frame rails or components. Common angles are 45, 60, and 90 degrees. For length, measure the centerline radius (CLR) of your existing elbow - most International 8100-8300 trucks use either 12-inch or 15-inch CLR elbows. When in doubt, our technical support team can help identify the correct part using your VIN number.
