Yea a hood stack would work. I dont know if any one has an adapter for it but I had thought before about puttin a ford 205 and dana 60 front axle under my dodge so it would drop on the drivers side and you could run whatever exhaust you want

See, the Fords were designed for everything to favor the passenger side and the t-case to drop on the driver side. I'm fighting the doghouse and crossmember design by trying to favor the driver side and leave room for the t-case AND a monster exhause on the passenger side. If I could clock the t-case a bit, I could potentially make room for 5" exhaust while still keeping the engine as centered as possible. It was an idea anyway. I guess I could always just make things easy and cut a hole in the hood for a stack, eh?
In all reality there is no NEED for 5" exhaust, If you WANT it thats different, but you wont make any more power with it.

Agreed. However, I wasn't worried so much about power gains as much as backpressure on twins. Will it affect backpressure or spooling much if you neck down the 5" outlet on an HT3B to a 4" exhaust? I figured just run it out all 5", which is why I was looking for room...

he has a point a lot of twin kits come with a 5" down pipe, but i don't know how much it would effect flow or anything... i know my 4" really helped a lot on spool up time.

Alot come with 5" DP's because the large turbos they use have 5" flanges. You should not see a difference. 5" is HUGE as far as flow goes... Overkill...

but then why would you want to neck down the secondary turbo to 4", why wouldn't you just ask for a 4" outlet on the secondary turbo if 5" is too much flow?

So, there won't be an issue if I just adapt my 4" downpipe to the 5" flange on an HT3B or other big secondary?
