The previous owner of mine cut the muffler right off. Said it didn't do much anyways. So he just stuck on a piece of 3 1/2" pipe and welded it on plus the flapper.
Keep me posted...... :beer:
Ok, I have 2 videos as promised.
The first is the flapper while letting the truck warm up (after the buzzer went off) this morning. I hod to take the little one to soccer.
The second one is later when i got home and the motor was nice and warm, just letting it cool down for a few.
This was the hauler I used. Even if you have a shipper in mind, it might be worth getting another quote. (unless your getting it done for free from a buddie) :beer:

still looking for the local # for you
What do you want ? A pic of his invoice?
I met a local guy with a lowboy. I need to find his number. Not sure if I still have it.

Tomorrow I will get a better video up of the horrific clanking when firing it up.
Here is a bad video when i was trying to see the exhaust smoke color.
I have no muffler on mine. The previous owner said it didn't really make a difference in the sound. I actually have 2 videos from today. (one on the highway and the other just coming in for landing lol) But you can get a idea against the other traffic.
Mine is hinged so it's opening away from...

Or you could cut the stack and run it straight up. (That's how mine is).
I have to tell you that my flapper is as clanky as they...
This is my 5th time reading this thread form beginning to end and I have a few questions.
(1) If adding one pyro, What is the best cylinder to tap into ?
(2) If adding a second, where should that go?
(3) I just bypassed the FDC today and the truck will not hold idle under 1000 rpm unless I...
Since this thread is about bypassing the fdc, shouldn't there be the info here for turning down the fuel pressure.
I remember reading about it in another thread but now i need to look for it again.
Yes but the flex of the rubber would be equal wether the dogbones were modified or not. It would be figuring out about the affects of modifying the dogbones or fabricated dogbones comparied to stock.
In the beginning of the thread I mentioned that due to the 53" wheels they had to relocate the rear axle about 8" further to the rear. That's why the dogbones were lengthened.
I don't know if the I-beam style can be pushed out or not. That would be helpful to know. I dont have a H-press so...
