One problem related to manifold/header/muffler/tail pipe has been reported for the 1999 Chevrolet Silverado 1500. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Noticed that the front left exhaust manifold bolt broke off; no one has ever touched this part so the bolt was installed as original. Searching the internet I found this is a major -- and known -- problem affecting millions of these engines. The patter starts with a bolt or two then culminates with more broken bolts, an exhaust leak, overheated catalytic converter, damaged parts and potential fires.
