52103 Downpipe install

I've searched a little, but couldn't find instructions.

Can anyone tell me how this goes in.

1. does the old and the new come out and go in from the top or bottom .
2. Does anything else need to be removed for access to make it easier?
3. Does the firewall need to be modified at all?
4. Should it be wrapped with the old heat blanket?

Thanks for any help.

-From the top.


-I think the factory intake is it, if that's even necessary.


-The seam needs to be bent over and pushed out of the way.


-Exhaust wrap if you want. I wrap all my downpipes, but whether its worth the effort or not is up in the air...

Wow

Just installed my downpipe and 4" diamond Eye system. Not too bad a job. Feels like a different truck. Quicker off the line and sounds quite a bit different.

Nowto change my timing back to 6 to 6.5 degrees for towing my 5th Wheel.
