Liz, I'm still here! Just haven't posted in a few days because everybody seems busy.... so I decided that if I didn't post, I would look busy too. Ha - the story of my life.... trying to look busy, but instead just fiddle-fartin' around.

Jared, what would be your suggestions for opening up my exhaust? Do you think I could get away w/o cats? (I think they're giving out) Any thoughts?

The EFI dual exhaust manifolds, the front half of the factory cat pipe for those as well, back to just after the O2s passage so you have a crossover for balance, then dual 2" pipes with turbo mufflers. Your truck might have to be set up a little differently than my old F250 since it's so much shorter.
You will want an Offenhauser intake as well, you need to grind the exhaust manifolds just a little to clear, but nothing major.

Just got home from installing a new used/temp turbo and getting another 7.3 diesel motor ready for install tomorrow. Kinda neat to see how everything goes together. This motor is a for sure 500hp.

Not my motor going into my truck. Next year is the possibility of my change out. Takes $$$ for what I need to do.
