How is ground clearance with those flows? How loud is it?
Very nice job indeed

Re: updated pics of true duals, finished!!

thanks! I haven't taken the car off the jack stands yet, but I hope it's decent. I haven't fired it up either, got a few more things going on the motor right now. I will get a sound clip asap though.

Re: updated pics of true duals, finished!!

I see by your photo that you have the axle supported by floor jacks; does your exhaust clear the driveshaft/torque arm when the axle moves up and down?

the car is being supported under the frame by a second set of jack stands. the ones under the axle are just for peace of mind. The axle is actually hanging in the pic.

Did you use the back seat belt holes to bolt those muffler hangers on? Clever idea if you did.

ya, I used the seatbelt bolt holes. I saw someone else do it. They are solid anchors!

Looks good! I decided to go with the Moroso Spiral Pro mufflers since I hadn't seen anyone with them yet. I bought the Jeg's universal kit. I hope its near the same.

I used the Summit 3" X-pipe kit, and Spin tech Mufflers. Basicly the same setup, sounds awesome!

Nice setup Are you going to put tips to point the exhaust downwards?
