Zoomies!! Straight through the hood, That would be bad a**. Someday,, I will have a truck that bad a** and I will be

. You Know from "Joe dirt". Sorry could't help it!

Depends on what you have for an engine. If you are going for power, depending on hp level, 2 1/2" duals will be good for 350 -400 horse, with a x-over or h- pipe. If you have aluminum wheels I'd go behind the rear wheels, beacuse they will tarnish if it is a driver. If it's a stocker, I'd go 2 1/2 single.

But we will need to know what you have and what future plans are. Most important what are you wanting?

drop'em down behind the rear wheels so you can barely see them like the 67-68 z-28's do
