My god those FMO's are huge lol as far as exhausts go do i hook them all up after the cat? and i personally was thinking maybe some just straight dual exhausts but those would come straight from the enigne right? which means no cat and probably more work since i would have to find places to attach the pipes to the truck

 

That's alright. I know the feeling myself.

I'm hoping to get going on mine this summer, but we'll see. It will happen at some point in time lol.

 

min fisher man i see you have the 302 v8 do you have an exhaust system? or a recommendation

 

What sort of tools/area do you have to work in?

If you get a shop to do it, a set of straight pipes, and those FMO's could be put on, in about 3 hrs...And for about $400-ish....Counting the pipe...

 

i moved from home which was a shop and any tool you could dream up to a house in the city were at most i have a concrete slab and basic tools, so with straight pipes i would just cut every thing down get two FMO's and some pipe? sounds easy enough wish i had the cutting torch though...i suppose i could get a sawsah from someone around here

 

If you want...To save money...

Just cut the OEM muffler out, and replace it with the FMO....Simple, and easier to do...And can be done with clamps....

Plus, if you have emissions testing, you can pass...

 

Not yet. I have a cracked passenger side manifold, so I'm just going to go with Long Tube headers, a Hi Flow Cat, then probably a Thrush Turbo Muffler. Going to have duals going out at 45's.

 

hmmmmm doesnt sound to shabby i guess i will just have to see what happens as far as emissions testing i have never heard of such a thing in iowa lol but in about 2 years i plan to be elsewhere so might be good for future purposes

 

Todays' progress...

• Replaced my Fuel Filter

And MAN was the old one NASTY....Nice brown coloring as the gas flowed out, etc...

On the initial test drive...I could tell a nice difference...Not as sluggish as she once was...

 

• Semi-Wired in my "new" to me stereo...
• A friend of mine gave me 3-10" MTX 4000 subs, box, and a 2,400w, 4channel Planet Audio amplifier...
• Wiped my engine bay down, ziptied a few wires up out of the way...
• Cleaned all my windows really good.
• Did my monthly vehicle inspection

 

If the FMO's are louder than Stingers, I don't think I'd want to hear them. I drive a straight piped diesel everyday with the exhaust literally right by my head and love it. I like my vehicles much louder than most people. My Stingers are almost perfect for my taste. Really loud when I want it to be and only kinda loud while cruising. LOL. Much louder and I would throw them in the scrap pile.

 

Made a TON of progress today.....




Did some sanding, etc.....and FINALLY MOUNTED THE HOODSCOOP!!!!!

 

What all did it take to do the orange light mod on the dash?

I did the walk through for just this reason. To get the color you want either use colored LED's.

 

Hey, Thanks!
