As for the grade 304 is just as good in this application as 316.  316 has a higher chrome content & is better at handling acids (Principally hydrochloric) - not a concern in out application.  No point using either 316L or 304L as these only have a lower carbon content - a waste of money for our application.

You were going so well. 304 is barely 'stainless steel' in real terms. 316 offers improved corrosion resistance and the low carbon content should be used whenever there is a likelihood of corrosion - hot corrosion is definately an issue for the internal surfaces of an exhaust system
