The floor boards do get a little warm but not worth mentioning.
During driving i don't get any warming up, only when i am standing still.

If it would become a problem then an alu heat shield solves the problem, i did that between the exhaust and the lpg tank.
Roger. It definitely looks good!

Re: Exhaust pictures

Anyone have any opinions on this kit?

Looks like all I'd need are a set of mufflers and I could just clamp this thing together.. grab a few more clamps and some hangers and I'd be done.. no?

$129

Made of 16-gauge, mandrel-bent, aluminized tubing, these universal X-pipes keep you legal on the street, yet simply loosen six wing nuts to race down the track with open pipes. Each X-pipe includes a race-ready cutout, four cut-to-fit legs, and clamps.

Re: Exhaust pictures

Don't know about that kit. Looks like a lot of clamping together and possibilities of exhaust leaks. I say don't skimp on price....the old saying "you get what you pay for."

I don't have a close up of my exhaust, but here is a side profile shot. Duel flowmasters exiting on sides in front of rear tires. Chrome tips are actually about 18" welded on, not clamped.

The exhaust exits out both sides...





That is a cool idea and looks cool. Are you gonna restore the truck more? That would look sweet with the body work and paint done.

Re: Exhaust pictures

Here's mine before I installed it. 3" with cutouts and super 40 flowmasters. Dumps out about 4" behind the cab. I'll try to get one of the exhaust on the truck.
