good lookin pair of chimneys there steelslinger... quality lookin job ya did. almost looks (dare i say) PROFESSIONAL?????

 

Looks good. Would like to have duals but don't want to live with the cross pipe. To the guy who started this thread, dual aluminum cat stacks would be neat to see. Have you started to work on them yet?

 

You could run the pipes under the frame and have 2 holes in your bed for dual stacks and the y would be under the truck. Just an idea for ya if you want to try duals.

And no, I haven't started yet. Just been waiting for the TIG welder at school to get fixed. I'm really tempted to just wait and make them out of steel.

 

I wanted to do that but the fuel tank hangs so much lower than the frame and I would have to be under that so I decided against it. Aslo don't know if I want an exhaust pipe that close to my plastic tank.

 

FordDZLMan919 - That's what I wanted to do originally, but for us 3rd gen guys, the whole filler neck is run exactly where I'd need to cut the driver's side hole.

acblair801 - I was going to run mine over the rails but under the bed by using a rectangular tube. Wrap the section of pipe going over the tank with Cerawool (ceramic high temp insulation, used in thermal ovens for industrial molding, etc).

crusty_critter - Thanks! Been very pleased with how they turned out and sound. Professional you say? Perhaps.....

 

When I bought my truck and was trying to figure out how to dual pipe it into dual stacks(since I don't have a turbo) I thought about drilling a hole through the frame rail then welding in a piece of pipe and attaching flex pipe on both sides then the pipes would be outside the frame rails but would not hang down and I wouldn't have to worry about crunching them when I go play in the mountains. Wasn't too sure about drilling and welding the frame though.
