Re: Need new exhaust, where to hear mufflers?
Finally got to really hear my new exhaust today, what a difference! The interior is much more quiet than it was with the rotten old pipes and glass packs. Outside it sounds like a hot rod! It's not as loud as it was unless I stand on it but just putting around its nice and mellow. When my spine recovers I will get some video of it. I have a little tweaking to get my tips to match up but it can wait till I feel better. I had to order a kit for a 73/74 and the pipes exited about 2" past the rear tires, I cut a wedge shaped piece at the elbow and pulled them back and welded it back together so now they come out at an angle and come out about 6" in front of the rear bumper. Now I need to replace the stainless Dynomax tips for some Flowmaster tips! (probably not, I'm not THAT anal!) thanks for all the suggestions and help during my virtuous exhaust install!

Re: Need new exhaust, where to hear mufflers?
Heres a video of my trucks new exhaust and a walk around. My camera sucks or more likely I had it on the wrong setting so the color looks way off in the sunlight! The video is kinda choppy cause I suck at video and had little memory left on my memory stick. Anyway, lets see if this works!

Re: Need new exhaust, where to hear mufflers?
I'll post some pics of the install tomorrow. Maybe a better video if I can figure out my camera! I wish the new exhaust smell would go away soon, I smell it even after I go in the house.

I'm afraid you're going to have to give me that truck.

Re: Need new exhaust, where to hear mufflers?
When I took my exhaust apart I found that someone cut the valve out of the heat riser, I went ahead and removed it since it wasn't doing anything. I'm wondering if I should have replaced it with a new one? Would it really make a difference in warm up times?
