good deal. I wasn't sure which brake setup bill had. yup, 15's wont work. have to mock up a 16 then, it might not work either .

or just trade me brakes, they you'll have no problem, lol. .

That torque arm might limit some of your options. Is your car the stock ride height?

it is in the rear, cause we swapped out those for a better launch. front is still lowered a bit.

he already has a spohn torque arm.

and Rod442, he has bear brakes up front. much larger then stock front calipers. the rear calipers are already ground to clear 15" rims thanks to me.

I wanted that same sound on my 99, but I didn't want to deal with the scraping, and at the same time I didn't want to beat the **** out of my floor pans for more clearance. I tried all kinds of mufflers, and with the 10 bolt in there it was easy, honestly the 9" fit too with the stock torque arm but about a week after I got the 9" I put a BMR torque arm in there (HUUGE improvement!) and lost a bit of clearance. I then went and bought the single chamber flowmasters, and they sounded awesome too but were a bit loud for my tastes. Quieter than bullets, but still. After driving around with the single chambers for 2 weeks, I ordered the 2 chambers and it was perfect. As far as the crossover goes I have had an H-pipe on all of my systems, and it sounded fantastic. Keith could do an X-pipe if you prefer, but I think that the H-pipe sounded alot better personally and I would rather have that bad *** 60's muscle car sound with the H-pipe than have it be raspier and get 5 more HP.
LOL bad *** 60's sound.
I tried a dual flowmasters on my Z.
Had what I call big block chevelle syndrome.
Car sounds like your going 120 and your hardly moving.
TOO loud for my tastes.
IMO swap the muffler( ultra flo maybe) on your current system and go with a single out. Lose a couple pounds /save some money.
What ever you decide Keith will set you up.
