Sure thing, my ears are still ringing from the drive over to the shop. Straight headers are loud.

heres a iphone sound clip of the exhaust, glasspacks should get a little poppier after they break in.

So tight! It's awesome that you got to drive it before and after the Porterbuilt suspension! How does it compare from stock to Dropmembered? What size exhaust did you run? I would also love to see pics of the inside of the bed! Awesome build drtyrat!

Re: 1963 C10 SWB Big Window Build
 
Thanks guys...

Dino thanks man, i have a few copied pics of your herd for my screen savers.

The truck handles and drives amazing compaired to the way i got it. Porterbuilt got it right whith this set-up... i would say the sway bar is a must also, at high speed turns it is stable man..

I am running 2" exhaust pipe with headers and 16" glasspacks, i will get pictures of it for you soon.

Thanks again all and Merry Christmas

Here are some pics of the exhaust. They look close to the trailing arm but its just the camera angle, theres about 3/4" of room. I'm not sure if it will stay this way, i would like to run them out the back on each side of the license plate with fishtails somehow.

Thanks guys... It is sweet, i think im in love. These trucks are so cool man, and the sound of a crisp glasspack from a warm SBC is the best. I'm out wheel/tire shopping now. I say this with all my projects but i dont think i ever want to sell this one....

Why did you put your tank and compressors in back of the axle? ;)
