Thanks.
Got started on the exhaust this weekend. Cut a couple of flanges out of
1/4" plate on the plasmacam. It's all tacked together
just need to weld it up. I had enough pipe and bends left over from
the 3" system I ordered for the dually when I built it. Who'd a thunk it.

No, I'm going to put Magnaflow mufflers on it. But I will start it
without said mufflers just for grins.

Thanks Torchie. Still trying to do the low cost stuff.
I sure wish I had a tig welder!
And better eyes, and steadier hands....The list goes on and on!

Sounding good and plenty of power is very important in my books.
Still moving forward on this.

Staying with the single exhaust Pops? Or are you gonna split it behind the axle for duals?

Thanks. It's a lot easier when you're not dealing with all the junk
involved with an air bag system.

Are we still talking about the truck
Seriously, nice work and detail.
Now that's a nice thought to ponder!
Thanks.

Thanks Bob. It's been a no bucks situation around here lately.

I'll probably split it. I need to get the bed in place so I can do
the tail pipe part one time and get it where I want it.

I'm thinking about doing a single on my dodge truck to avoid the late model gas tank. I like symmetry, but I REALLY don't like seeing the drivers side pipe crossing over when people split them behind the rear axle. ....not much sheetmetal/other stuff to hide the crossover pipe behind on an early truck.

I got the exhaust welded up yesterday. Man I wish I had
a tig set up again.
I mounted the radiator from the donor on the front in
preparation to fire the engine. Just need to get the ignition
change over done and go back and replace the water pump.
I thought it wasn't leaking so it should be alright. When I filled
it with water it leaks now. Typical should have put it on in the
first place instead of trying to save a few bucks.
