Miles, that is basically the same muffler I have on my truck, except from Thrush, and so much cheaper. Flowmaster lost their patent, and Thrush took advantage and copied the design.

No sunburn here, takes a lot for me to burn! Must be that italian skin.

Found the paint code for my truck, hopefully I can now go and find the right paint!

Truck is out of the shop and moving under its own power.

It has an air leak of some sort not sure if it's charged air or exhaust. Starts hissing like a shop air hose leak about a quarter second after startup and stops as soon as the truck is shut off.

Checked the degas bottle cap nervously on first hearing it and there's no excess pressure there.

Thanks to everyone who helped along the way.
