Chevys hate no back pressure. They also hate UNEVEN back pressure. As soon as the exhaust leak was fixed, you engine breathed a sigh of relief.
My friend stopped by so I could weld the mudflap back on his big truck. (Kenworth) So all I got was the slats cut for about two and a half chairs. If tomorrow is another short day, I'll start building the frames for four chairs. I don't want to have a zillion chairs laying around if they don't end up buying them.
