F100 Side Exit Exhaust!!! Check!

Well, we just got done piecing together my Side Exit Exhaust on my '55 Ford F100. The exhaust is built using Stainless Steel Mandrel Bent Pipes from the Headers back. We used Magnaflow Mufflers and an H-Pipe. The truck was started in this video in 30 degree weather so it took it a bit to warm up. We still need to do the tune on the carb.

Bed is next, then steering and finally AC! Will be ready for Spring Time!!!!


Sorry don't know how to link video in the post other than providing a URL.

Let me know what you think. Pipes sit about 3/4 of an inch from the running board.

Very nice. That 427 will scoot along pretty good I think. And the pipes look and sound good too. Nice job.

Looks good and sounds good. Please, for your sake, open that garage door when that engine is running.

Thanks!

Thanks for all the nice comments. I am getting closer and closer to driving it for the first time! We did shortly after this open the garage completely because the truck was stinging the eyes! lol

I cannot wait to get the bed going this weekend. Stopped by On Track Performance today and picked up a Carb kit for the Edelbrock. Tuning happens tonight!

Extremely nice, that's a motor any one of us would be proud to have, I know I would. Man there are a lot of beautifully built trucks here on FTE, I love it!
