Michael,
321 is prefered for exhaust for 2 reasons. The ti in the mix helps prevent carbide parcipitation which can cause cracking, and becomes worse with more heat cycles. 321 also has a slightly lower coeficient of linear expansion which helps to lower heat cycle stresses. 304 will work fine in thicker sections.

Dale:

I guess my question is;  is it acceptable to use the more readily available
304 SS and what thickness (.065 seems to be common) for our application or
should we hold out for 321?
most of the 321 seems to be available in .035 wall. Is that thick enough?

Michael
